Soldering sequence and component placement:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Soldering sequence:<\/strong> Prioritize soldering of smaller components, such as resistors and capacitors, and finally solder larger components and connectors.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Component placement: <\/strong>Components should be neatly, centered, and placed on the board surface, and pay attention to the polarity of the components.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>5.
