- | The USB boarduino is almost completely assembled. Finishing it up should only take a few minutes | ||
- | |||
- | Check the parts in the bag, you should have the tested USB Boarduino board, a stick of 0.1" header, a 2x3 ISP header, a 28pin socket and a preprogrammed ATmega328p | ||

- | If you want to socket the microcontroller (we suggest it) Place the socket so that the **U** notch matches the **U** printed in the silkscreen. If you don't think you'll ever need to replace the microcontroller and you want a slimmer package, skip this stip. | ||
