User Documentation
Soldering the Kit
MicroBCU2 comes as a kit where the big parts on the bottom side have to be soldered:
- C4 - 100µF / 35V electrolytic capacitor. Polarization is important, refer to silkscreen or photo
- C41 - 1µF MLCC 1206
- L1 and L2 - 220µH inductors
- R1 - 22R resistor 2512
- J1 - 7x1 2.54 pin header (or whatever you need to connect to your host PCB)
- D1 - SS16 reverse polarity protection diode. . Polarization is important, refer to silkscreen. The bar on the diode should match the bar on silkscreen.
- D2 - SMAJ40CA TVS diode
I recommend to solder the parts in this order: L1, L2, C4, C41, R1, D1, D2, J1
