The board comes with all surface-mount components assembled and tested. For use on a breadboard, you will want to install the included header strips. This is a simple process and should only take a few minute

Assembly is the same for both v1 and v2 breakouts, even if the boards look a bit different!

Prepare the Headers

Cut the header strips to length if necessary and place the long-pins-down in the breadboard.

Position the Board

Place the breakout board over the header pins.

And Solder!

Solder every pin to assure good electrical contact.
