Hello, I have a question before starting the soldering process, can you confirm me the diode is correctly oriented ?
Thank you !
It should be but to be 100% sure you should check the schematic/PCB layout and the datasheet for the part. It’s extremely rare for a part like a diode to have a non-standard marking pattern so this would be correct, but it’s not unheard of.
Yes. You see that triangle with a line on top of it on the PCB? The line on your diode should be on the same side as the line on that marking.
Should be, that’s the orientation I solder mine and it works.
Thanks all for your comments and answers, I’ve just tests the keyboard and it seems to work pretty fine, I’m really happy, I didn’t expect to get something working directly!
As a reminder, here is the commands I’ve used to get the firmware to copy:
# Install the required compiler sudo apt install gcc-arm-none-eabi # Enter in the virtual environment . ~/.virtualenvs/qmk/bin/activate.fish # Check the keyboard qmk list-keyboards | grep sofle # Check the keymaps qmk list-keymaps -kb sofle_choc # Compile qmk flash -kb sofle_choc -km via -e CONVERT_TO=promicro_rp2040
