Overview
Learn essential steps to take after receiving your PCB boards from production and gain valuable soldering tips in this comprehensive tutorial. Unpack your boards, apply labels, perform visual inspections, and master soldering techniques for various components including SOT-23 diodes, RGB SMT LEDs, through-hole LEDs, and debug headers. Measure power rail resistance, connect your board to power, and verify voltages on power rails. Conclude by measuring oscillators and crystals to ensure your microcontroller board is properly assembled and ready for use.
