Well I finally got back to the electronics after about a month long detour real life interruption. All kinds of stuff slowed my progress on this session. But I got stuff done nonetheless. 0603 LED to 0805 resistor and some nickel strip leads coming off. Tested and working. This will be the indicator light for when the lowside mosfet comes on for one section of the custom BLDC motor controller. 0603 LEDs are extremely tiny for hand soldering and they don't take solder well either. I was originally going to go with blue LEDs but chatgpt said that would give off a unrealistic color through the silicone skin so orange would be better to give a more natural and less silicone skin piercing indicator light. Somehow I ran out of 470ohm resistors so I had to order more and I used my 200ohm ones instead for now. Which are a bit too bright. But chatgpt said I can diffuse the LED with a glob of silicone tinted black to darken and diffuse the light it gives off which sounds like a good idea to me. I am planning to use wire wrapping wire to come off of this assembly and tie into things. Somehow just attaching these two parts and testing it took me almost 3 hours. Between studying the schematic to refresh my memory on what is going on, visualizing placement options, overheating and destroying one LED, trying to locate the right color LEDs, shopping for replacement 470ohm resistors, researching and substituting in 200ohm resistors, discussing LED color options with chatgpt, figuring out how to solder a 0603 LED directly to a 0805 resistor part to part by hand, accidentally breaking a part off of its nickel strip lead and having to redo the connection, etc etc.
