Building the Simple Renard RGB+w
Assembly
The Simple Renard RGB+W is a simple device to assemble and test. It is easiest if you build the units by inserting the various components from smallest to tallest .
- Begin by inspecting the PCBs to look for any defects such as cracks or breaks. The holes on the board should be open on both sides. Then inspect and sort out the various parts for the board.
- Install the resistors:
- Install the capacitors:
- Install the IC socket:
- Install the transistors:
- Install the light emitting diodes:
- Install the 5v linear regulator
- Inspect the board to look for any missing solder joints, solder bridges or cold solder joints.
Congratulations! That completes the construction of the Simple Renard RGB+W !
