Hello Friends
When building my first ever PCB when I got to the sockets, I actually soldered in the chip to the board without the socket, OUCH!
I dont think it will be a problem what are your opinions?
I can really tests because I have dont have all the parts to complete the board or the pickit2 yet so I dont know if this will be a problem or not, I am leaning towards its not a problem.
BTW - I have the board 98% built and it passes the 3.3v and the 5v test, however led channel 6 lights up slightly. Just to not alarm anyone the only parts not assembled are the heat sink and the green bar where the light cords connect to.
Thanks for any help here.
