The SKIS module consists of two boards, the top board is used for all of the UI components and the 

bottom board is the heart of the sound processing circuit. 

We even included some of the best quality solder we found to help you solder everything faster. 

BOTTOM BOARD 

Lets start with the bottom board, with the shortest and smallest parts. 

Take a strip of resistors and look up the values printed on the circuit boards. Start with the 100K, since 

there are 14 of them it will be easier to locate the rest on the board. Place them through the board, solder 

them and clip off the excess leads. Do the same for the rest of 10k, 1k, 47k and 4.7k resistors. ( The color of 

the resistor body may defer from the pictures, but its the color code of the values that matters). 

Your board should look like this (click on the images to enlarge): 

 

Next populate the board with the diodes and solder them in. Be careful though, diodes are 

polarized!

 

Make sure that the marking ring on the diode body matches the marking on the circuit board. 

 

By now your board should look like this:
