What you need
- Arduino Uno
- SMD printer
- prototype board
Steps
- Check the correct placement of capacitors on the prototype board or SMD print according to the circuit layout.
- Use an SMD printer to solder the capacitors to the circuit, ensuring that the leads are well soldered.
- Check the polarity: the negative end (cathode) should be near the (-) label on the capacitor.
- Connect the positive of the capacitor to the positive rail of the power supply and the negative to the negative rail or ground.
- Verify that the capacitors are correctly connected using a multimeter in continuity mode.
- Test the functionality of the capacitors in the circuit, checking for unwanted oscillations.
