Hello
My Arduino Mini is missing somthing on its bottom side.
I suspect it to be some kind of capacitor.
Can anyone tell me what exactly is missing?
I would like to buy the part and and fix that.
Here is a photo
cheers broenni
That appears to be the 10uF 6V Filter Capacitor after the power regulator. The part has polarity and the + side would face toward the nearest edge of the board... towards the 5V pin.
Hint C8 on the schematic is directly attached to 5V pin... as this appears to be and the SIZE is about right (I don't have a mini personally, sorry)
I would like to express concern. This mini seems to have been abused. (The DING on the crystal is enough to make it possibly not work)
thank you.
i'll check my local electronics store and thry to find one of those.
so long, broenni
