== Breaking Target Section Apart ==
You may wish to break the target section apart from the main capture board. This can easily be accomplished by following these instructions: <ol stylediv class="listmw-style-type: decimal;collapsible"><li><p>Using a sharp knife (such as Xacto knife or retractable safety knife), cut the traces on the bottom side of the board along the cut line. Pass the knife back and forth several times. Scoring the board deeply will make the breaking process easier and less stressful on the PCB{{:</p><p>[[File:breakstep1.png|image]]</p></li><li>Score the board on the top side:</li></ol> <blockquote>[[File:breakstep2.png|image]]</blockquote><ol start="3" style="listCW1173_ChipWhisperer-style-type: decimal;"><li>Select a surface to break the board over. It is suggested to have a piece of cardboard or boxboard down to protect components on the bottom side of the ChipWhisperer:<Lite/li></ol> <blockquote>[[File:breakstep3.png|image]]Breaking Target Section Apart}}</blockquotediv><ol start="4" style="list-style-type: decimal;"><li>Hold the main board section flat, apply even pressure to the target board section.

Flexing the PCB too much may cause damage to solder joints, but by holding the entire board flat against the edge this is prevented.
