Soldering was pretty relaxed, except for the USB socket. The 0603 components require a bit of concentration and patience. Soldering with an iron is possible for enthusiasts, a magnifier would help a lot. Using solder paste + hot air / oven is definitely the way to go if you do more than just one board.

Well... at least PDI programming worked. I still need to get a micro-USB cable. Today I found out that my local consumer electronics store thinks I should pay 16€ for a friggin' 1.8m micro-USB cable. NO WAY. The cheapest old-style USB2.0 cable was still 6€. WTF!?! Up till now I was happy with HDMI cables being hilariously overpriced (I don't need those), but simple micro-USB cables are now overpriced as well.

Stupid BUB hack: RX/TX LED

Stupid BUB hack: RX/TX LED

The BUB board only comes with one LED. The one I got wouldn't show both RX and TX activity, so I just bridged pins 22 and 23 to have the single LED react to both paths. The default setup is activity indicator for RX on 22 and TX on 23. A much smarter way would have been to use FT_PROG and just change the chip's EEPROM configuration, which allows RX/TX activity indication on a single pin. My lame excuse for using my soldering iron is that the software tool doesn't run on linux. I have XP in a VM, but soldering is more fun anyway.
