Soldering

With Charlotte Latin on Spring Break this week, I had to rely on the supplies I had at home. Soldering the board was mostly a breeze, thanks to the 1206 surface-mount parts I grabbed from an SMD book.

The only real challenge was soldering the LEDs, since their polarity mattered. Without access to a multimeter—we somehow lost the one we had at home—I had to get creative. I repurposed an ESP32 I had lying around, attaching two jumper wires and a 22-ohm resistor to the ground and 3.3V pins. This improvised setup allowed me to test the LED polarity without needing a multimeter.
