Before you begin soldering your Micro-KIM kit together you need to inventory all of the parts in the kit. The
following is a list of all the components in the kit and the quantity of each component. If your kit is short any
parts, email me at [e-mail] to arrange to get the missing part. Be sure to allow plenty of work space
for assembly.
NOTE: If you have an assembled board, you only need to verify the jumper is on JP1 and off of JP2 to insure
normal operation. You can skip this section and proceed to the next chapter. There is no CN1 connector.
The chips are in static protective sleeves and you may be able to inventory them just by looking through the
plastic.
The sockets are also in a sleeve but mostly for ease of shipping. Use the figure 3 in the previous chapter to help
identify the parts.
The 1 MHz oscillator is identified by its silver color and it looks like a 4 pin chip. Pin 1 is identified as the
pointed corner.
The 7805 voltage regulator can be identified from figure 3 as well as the 6 seven segment displays.
There are 9 transistors in total and they can be identified by the number written on the flat spot on them.
There is only one 47K resistor pack that has 9 pins in a single-inline-package or (SIP).
To identify the different resistors, use the part description below to help you identify each resistor. Group all of
the resistors into different piles according to their colors. There should be 5 different piles when you have
finished.
