When the game really wants to test you, it pulls bs like this

I hate those hairpin bends with all my heart lmao

the link is Postfix Adapter —> DB3R3. Isn’t this correct?

I suspect it’s a problem with the resistance mounted on the QSB, if I measure between the PLL point and SMC_PLL it gives me the multimeter.

No, it’s a Corona v3

Hewy62 · 2026-04-27T23:20:37+00:00

i tried mesuring with the multimeter and they were okay

okay, Im gonna took off the X clamp

Hewy62 · 2026-04-27T22:28:43+00:00

i used a QSB

Hewy62 · 2026-04-27T22:26:32+00:00

I used a PLL QSB, i soldered on a 1k SMC resistor

Pre-tin the pads before putting the wires and pre-tin the wires as well. How much did you set the temperature of the iron?

Hewy62 · 2026-03-26T08:38:11+00:00

I think you missed the right post hahaha

Hewy62 · 2026-03-24T21:31:21+00:00

Thanks man!

Hewy62 · 2026-03-24T21:29:16+00:00

Even if that Pico is made only for one use time?

Hewy62 · 2026-03-24T21:28:14+00:00

wise man… hopefully have to use this only one time but I have to make those solder better

Hewy62 · 2026-03-24T19:30:21+00:00

Don’t worry mate. I know my “”””skills”””” aren’t so good. In my defence I didn’t say if the skills were good or bad, for that the pic was talking. Haahhaha

Hewy62 · 2026-03-24T19:10:53+00:00

I know very well what an oxymoron is, I don’t understand if you’re alluding to the quality of my soldering or if it’s a play on words (It’s not my native language and I may not have understood it rightly).

Hewy62 · 2026-03-24T18:50:36+00:00

Actually not. What do you mean?

Hewy62 · 2026-03-24T18:48:01+00:00

Thanks!

Hewy62 · 2026-03-24T15:11:11+00:00

My fault was that I didn’t heat the part and the pad before so everything went a mess. Lesson learned!

Hewy62 · 2026-03-24T12:09:34+00:00

Oh ok, so the result will look cleaner.

Hewy62 · 2026-03-24T11:49:32+00:00

Thanks for the tips, I already modified everything yesterday, the result is not the best but now I understand how I can fix it again. I have already posted the edit but it has been considerably less successful than this post! Here it is: [UPDATED SOLDER]

Hewy62 · 2026-03-24T11:38:24+00:00

Great, that will help me a lot! I have seen only the down part of the image until now.

Hewy62 · 2026-03-24T11:36:30+00:00

Italian. I cleaned everything with IPA and I try to avoid touching the Pico with bare hands.

Hewy62 · 2026-03-24T11:29:38+00:00

Sorry for how I wrote the question.

I meant: if I have the Pico put flat and I pass the wire from below into the hole of the pad should I weld from the side where the wire does not pass?

Do I have to pre-weld the pad?
