Success!! Its a working Arduino!!! I soldered all the components on the board. It took me a bit to figure out which components are which since I do not have the silk layer and its slightly different from the original which has the values for the components. I also have a few extra holes that I am not really sure what they are for. I connected up my FTDI basic and uploaded good ol’ Blink and low and behold the GREEN FLASH OF GLORY!!!
bottomI must note that the solder did not flow up to the top pads like a normal board with through hole plating. This is not necessary on this board since it is mostly one-sided. It does not have the mechanical holding on the components but I will try not to hang any weights from them. I also did not solder all the headers on yet because I wanted to give it a try and it was getting late. I will finish it up tomorrow.
