### Assembly
For most of the part, just follow the guide of AIC key.
Soldering the 18P-0.5mm-1.0H FPC/FFC connector can be challenging. Here are some tips to make the process easier:
* Use a small, sharp iron tip, the smaller the better.
* Set your soldering iron to a lower temperature, below 280 degrees Celsius.
* Apply a generous amount of high-quality solder flux to keep the pins "wet" during soldering.
* Use thin low-temperature solder wire (for example, diameter of 0.3mm).
* Start by soldering the mounting pins on both sides for proper alignment, then proceed with the 18 main pins.
* Don't feed solder wire directly onto the main pins.
* When soldering main pins, only apply a very small amount of solder to the iron tip.
* If you apply too much solder, a solder wick can be used effectively to remove the excess.
* The touchscreen will block PN532's RF signal so we need to offload the antenna to AIC Touch's PCB just like what we do in PN5180 version.
* To build PN5180 version, short the "PN532 ANT" (green mark in the picture). To build PN532 version, short the "PN5180 ANT" (red mark in the picture).

* Not like the PN5180, the PN532 has 3 pins - it has a center tap. Here's how you offload the antenna from the PN532. Cut (with small knife or chisel) the original 2 traces of the antenna (green marks in the picture) and connect 3 "PN532 ANT" pins to the PN532 module.

Remember to attach 1mm-thick soft pads to support the touchscreen. You can use 1mm 3M VHB double-sided tape, but do NOT remove the red film liner (don't let the tape stick to the touchscreen).

### 组装
对于大部分内容,请参考 AIC Key 的制作。
焊接 18P-0.5mm-1.0H FPC/FFC 连接器很有挑战。以下是一些提示:
* 使用小而尖锐的烙铁头,越小越好。
* 将你的焊接铁温度设定在较低的温度,大约 280 摄氏度。
* 使用大量的高质量焊接助剂,以保持引脚在焊接过程中“湿润”。
* 首先焊接两侧的固定引脚以确保正确的对齐,然后焊接 18 个主引脚。
* 避免直接将焊锡丝喂到主引脚来焊接。
* 在焊接主引脚时,只需要在烙铁尖上附着极少量的焊锡。
* 如果你用了过多的焊锡,可以用吸锡带去除多余的焊锡。
* 触摸屏会严重阻挡 PN532 的 RF 信号,所以我们需要将天线转移到 AIC Touch 的 PCB 上,就像前面 PN5180 版本那样。
* 制作 PN5180 版本时需要短接 "PN532 ANT"(图片中的绿色标记)。制作 PN532 版本时则需要短接 "PN5180 ANT"(图片中的红色标记)。
<img src="doc/ant_short.png" width="60%">
* 和 PN5180 不同PN532 有 3 个天线引脚。要把 PN532 的天线转移到我们 AIC Touch 的 PCB 上,先用小刀或凿子切断原来的 2 条天线走线(图片中的绿色标记),然后将 3 个 "PN532 ANT" 引脚连接到 PN532 模块对应位置。

记得贴一层 1mm 厚度的软垫以支撑触摸屏。你可以用 1mm 厚度的 3M VHB 双面胶带,但是不要移除红色的保护层(绝对不要让胶带粘在触摸屏上)。
