 v1.0: errata: J4 and J5 have no connection to ground. J1-3 do carry ground, so it isn't a problem if the DIN/DOUT modules share the same power rail. v1.0: errata: J4 and J5 have no connection to ground.

-In order to keep the button pad flat, it's best to solder all components on the rear of the board i.e. opposite the pads. The contacts are exposed ENIG, so try not to damage the surface by scratching or splashing solder/flux on them.\\+To keep the button pad flat, it's best to solder all components on the rear of the board i.e. opposite the pads.

 Start by tinning one pad (preferably not the pad joined to the ground plane with thermals) of each 1206 capacitor, making a "​tack"​ joint, aligning the part and cleaning up if needed.\\ Start by tinning one pad (preferably not the pad joined to the ground plane with thermals) of each 1206 capacitor, making a "​tack"​ joint, aligning the part and cleaning up if needed.\\
  
-The best way to fix the 1N4148 diodes is to place the parts then solder **from the same side** ​only the anode lead on the inside ​of the button pad. Turn the board around and clip the cathode lead as close to the board as possible. You can even pull the lead out slightly. On the **rear** of the board, solder the cathode with as little solder as possible. The aim is to leave no solder bump on the frontside. Try to give equal care to the other through hole components (R1, C1, D1, J1).+The best way to fix the 1N4148 diodes is to place the parts then solder **from the same side** ​just the anode lead that intersects ​the pLED silkscreen. (The length ​of this lead isn't important as the LED will not be flush on the top faceDon't short out any pins though!) ​Turn the board around and clip the cathode lead as close to the board as possible. You can even pull the loose lead out slightly ​as long as you can still make a solid joint. On the **rear** of the board, solder the cathode with as little solder as possible. The aim is to leave no solder bump on the frontside. Try to give equal care to the other through hole components (R1, C1, D1, J1).
  
-If using shrouded headers, ensure ​the notch points ​on the same side as the pin 1 designator. +Check that the pinout of your pLEDs matches with the board i.e. serial in on the rounded ​side, serial out on the flattened side. Also test the height relative to the silicone button pad; it's not necessary to push the leads in the whole way (and you might damage your LED).
-==== Resistors ====+
  
-  * four 30k resistors marked in pink +If using shrouded headersensure the notch points out on the same side as the pin 1 designator.
-  * remainder are 49k9 +
-  * for best resultsmatch R1/R2, R7/R8 (and so on), and R4/R5/R6, R10/R11/R12 (and so on).  +
-  * the value is less important than the minimum deviation.+

-  * four 10p as marked in pink +  * J2 normally connects to Core J4B (I2C)

-  * red -12V +
-  * blue +12V +
-  * green 0V(ground) +
-  * for Core power, bridge the solder jumper marked in yellow +
-  * otherwise install the Vreg circuit in pink +
-  * **IMPORTANT** only choose one of these 3v3 power options! Don't install the regulator if the solder jumper is bridged. +

-==== Headers ==== +
- +
-For connection to a [[Control Board]], use pin headers placed on the opposite side as the rest of the components i.e. follow the silkscreen markings. For standalone use, you probably want header pins (or sockets, or even bare wires if you wish) on the same side as the remaining circuitry. +

- +
- +
-==== Standalone use ==== +
- +
-For simplest results, use the complementary [[Control Board]]. Otherwise see below for header functions. +
- +
- +
-=== Five pin header === +
- +
-  * IN = CV input +
-  * for scaling bipolar CVs, connect or switch into OFFSET (e.g. +5V; n.b. the offset should be referenced to the common 0V) +
-  * for 0-5V operation, leave SWITCH open; for 0-10V operation, jumper or switch in COMMON to POLE +

-=== Three pin header === +
- +
-  * with a 100k pot facing you, solder the left leg to 0V(ground) +
-  * centre to WIPER +
-  * right to LEG +
-  * WIPER and LEG may be jumpered if pots aren't desired, but it is quite useful to have an attenuator to trim down variable CVs or even clip the second op amp for crunchy waveforms! +
