Step 1: PCB Bottom side
The SM010 DIY Kit contains two boards:
Board 1. (Rear) This board contains the power connector, microcontroller, and the
matrix switch chip.
Board 2. (Front) This board is entirely dedicated to the interface.
Most of the components have to be placed on the top side of both boards, but you must
start with soldering the back side — the one shown above. It is used for pin-headers,
which connect boards together, and for two shift registers handling the LED matrices.
You could speed up the building process using a tool holding the boards firmly during
stuffing and soldering.

Step 2: IC Sockets for the board 2
Insert two DIP IC sockets. Please pay attention to the correct orientation, which is
different for this particular sockets!
These sockets tend to slip off the holes, so it’s practical to gently bend their pins
towards each other to help them fit in the holes while you’re flipping the board over
and soldering them. It’s recommended to solder just two pins in the diagonally opposite corners of each socket and then, if needed, reflow them while pushing the socket
closer to the surface of the PCB. Then solder the rest of the pins.

Step 3: Bypass capacitors
These two 100nF capacitors must also be placed on this side. These are not polarized
components labeled as “104”, “100n” or “.1µF”.

Step 4: 30-pin Headers
In order to align both boards perfectly, you need to solder all pin-headers at once when
they are in their working position. Connect each pair, then insert the male sides into
the Board 1, then carefully wear the Board 2 on the female sides to form a sandwich.
Then solder pins at each corner of each board to let headers keep this sandwich
together. After soldering the rest, you can disassemble the sandwich and continue to
the next step.

Step 5: ICs
Insert all chips into its sockets. Please pay attention to the orientation! All capacitors
are installed near the Pin 1
You’ve finished working with this side! It’s highly recommended to clean the top side of
this boards now, before installing the rest of components.

Step 6: Top Side of the PCB
The rest of the components will be installed on this side. Short instructions: please
assemble the module in the following order: Solder SMD voltage regulator, resistors,
diodes, quartz crystal, 18 pF capacitors, IC sockets, 1 nF capacitors, 100 nF capacitors,
all TO92 components (transistors, voltage regulators). Install and solder remaining
pin-headers, electrolytic capacitors, insert ICs, insert jack sockets, pushbuttons and
all displays, insert the windows (if needed), remove the rear protective film off the
windows, put the front panel on, and fasten few nuts by hand, solder everything but
displays, solder displays tightly pressing them to the windows, then put on the rest of
nuts, remove the front film, ..., PROFIT! If you need more details, the following pages
will guide you through this process more detailed.
