The core Zynthian kit is designed to allow novice to build a full device. Beware that the Zynaptik expander kit installation is more challenging, requiring some electronic construction skills including soldering and cutting. An intermediate hobbyist should be able to tackle the installation.

Insert one of the 10-pin 90 degree headers into the ADS1115 module. The pins go into the component side of the PCB extended through to the solder side. The ADS1115 is on the bent pin side of the header's plastic strip, not the straight pin side.

Insert the 40 pin header into the PCB with the short pins extending from the component side, through the PCB so that the plastic base sits on top of the component side of the PCB with its longer pins pointing up above the component side. It does not matter which way round this is inserted. Solder the short pins to the PCB.
