Today in class went went over the tools we will be using in assembling our circuit board, including the soldering iron, heat sinks, and solder plungers and wicks. Along with that we discussed proper techniques for soldering components to the board as well as soldering wires together. We also went over schematic symbols and how to use the color bands on resistors to calculate their their resistance value. We also had some time at the end of class to begin assembling our circuit boards. I was only able to get the 40 pin DIP socket in place today.
