DPScope - Build Your Own USB/PC-Based Oscilloscope

Step 29 Assembly Step 17: USB Cable

Take the USB cable out of its antistatic bag and feed its wire ends through the hole in the backpanel plate. Secure the cable binder tightly around the cable – this will act as a stress relief so the cable can’t pull on the solder joints later. Snap off the protruding part of the cable binder.

The cable has 6 wires in 6 different colors. Solder them into the respective hole of J3 (all holes have labels indicating the proper color, as shown in the zoomed insert). The sequence from top to bottom is:
 

 

Red (red)

Yellow (yel)

Orange (org)

Green (grn)

Brown (brn)

Black (blk)
