| [title] Solder the microcontroller | |
| [* icon_note] In this step, you're going to apply solder to one of the microcontroller pads to help with alignment when you solder it to the board. | |
| [* black] Press the iron's tip against the board's bottom left microcontroller solder pad for a few seconds to heat it. | |
| [* icon_caution] If you heat the circuit board continuously for more than 10 seconds, the excessive heat may damage the solder pad. | |
| [* black] Feed the solder wire into the heated area until there's a small glob of solder on the pad. | |
| - | [* icon_note] Since these pads are so close together, it's easy for the solder to adhere to multiple pads. This is fine as long as the pads aren't |
| + | [* icon_note] Since these pads are so close together, it's easy for the solder to adhere to multiple pads. This is fine as long as the pads aren't bridged to each other. |
