I feel pretty good about it. This was my first attempt at smd but I’ve been soldering stuff for a while. Yes, I do have a multimeter

I’ve only got one image allowed at a time. So bear with me please. I had to desolder the headers (lcd and extended pi)

From what I can tell, everything looks ok visibly, with the possible exception of R32 (Encoder 3 rightmost pin) on the left-hand side of the resistor, though it could just be the light. E2 looks good and clean.
If you have a multimeter, the first thing I would do is “beep out” (test the connections for) each leg of the encoder, along its corresponding trace until you get to the header (or the ground plane).
Without a multimeter, upon visual inspection I don’t see anything that would indicate a soldering problem. If you haven’t already, you could try to reflow all your encoder SMD components and see if that helps.

I reflowed with a hot air gun (almost melted the headers) I agree with r32. I’ll trace back to the header. I may have just messed this board up.which - lemme tell ya - is thrilling.

Is there supposed to be a gap between c11 and c13?

https://raw.githubusercontent.com/monome/norns-shield/master/images/norns-shield.png is high res for reference

CAnt really tell what it’s doing.

Any chance you will have pre smd soldered boards back in stock?

Thanks man!!!

Looking forward to it.

Hey tehn, could the problem with the flickering LED´s of the PICnome be using a Raspberry PI3b instead of a B+?

nope. make sure it works with a computer. sounds like a power draw problem. try a powered usb hub.

and, whoa, picnome

Hey then, thanks for your help. I‘ll try that.

also, out of curiosity, is particularly picnome creating that reaction or clones in general. I got it used to see if the whole grid world is something i want to have in my life. the original is still the goal:)

ah, i was just surprised to hear picnome grids were still around

Hello! I figured out my issue with my board and got it sorted. now I’m getting a super collider error - after restarting as the doc recommends in maiden/matron this is the output:

can anybody help?

Hi Everyone, I just got my shield working and I ran the update for the latest version of Norns - I’m getting the following error after restart/startup

" BATTERY: FAIL.

ERROR (i2c/hp) failed to write

This is right after a fresh SD card. I’ve verified that both the oscillator and the DAC are properly soldered/no bridges or bad joints. I can’t figure it out for the life of me. Is there a different image I should be using?

Thanks!

run dmesg and see if the audio codec failed

there is no battery controller on the shield so that other message is fine

not sure what I’m looking for… I did the IC properly, I’m not sure about the oscillator - looking at the render in the git, I’m pretty sure I did.

This bit.

The dac is not being recognized. Triple check the soldering on the dac, the RPi header and resistors in between the two.

I soldered via hot air, I will check again - if pinning it out which pins should I follow?

Here’s what I’m looking at.

Hard to see but looks very much like dry joints on the dac. Also, suggest you remove the flux - it can very easily affect the crystal

thanks, I went back and removed/cleaned/and reflowed the chip - would agree with dry joints. still nothing. there is a slight dent in the crystal, not sure that makes sense. tracing power back to the header now to make sure it’s at least getting that.

I’d touch up the dac with the smallest tip you’ve got. You should be able to see solder flow. If you don’t, add a tiny bit to the tip, put flux on the pin and touch it again. After using hot air for countless smt modules, I generally drag solder if’s as it seems I get more controlled, reliable results.

Edited to add c16 looks like it could use a touch up as well.

Edited again, I would personally touch up a lot of passives on the board. Similar as i stated above. Hot air is really good getting stuff into position and works a lot of the time by itself, but I like the iron to finish it off
