Step 4Circuit Origami: inductor, reference capacitor, Schottky diode
B. Solder L1 to pins 1 and 8 and clip the remaining L1 lead length.
C. Place ceramic capacitor C4 so that one lead touches pin 3 on the MAX756 and the other is pressing against an exposed part of pin 2, which is now mostly underneath the electrical tape.
D. Solder C4 to pins 2 and 3 and clip the remaining C4 lead length.
E. Looking at MAX756 with pin 1 in the upper left, place the Schottky diode D2 on the ledge created by the large capacitor C1. Bend the D2 cathode D2(-) pin -- identified with a band -- around the MAX756 body so that it's touching the positive terminal of C1, C1(+). Bend the D2 anode D2(+) up so that it's touching pin 8 on the MAX756.
F. Solder the D2 pins to the MAX756 and clip the remaining lead length. Trim pins 8 and 3.
