First attempt at Surface mount soldering
Posted: Thu Jan 15, 2009 5:46 am
Here's a little pic of my first attempt at SMT.
It's a logic probe kit that uses a PIC10F202. Indication is with a red LED (1), green LED (0) and an amber LED to indicate a change in logic level.
I found good old blu-tack was useful to hold the parts in place for the first solder join.
The only trouble with the kit is finding a clear pen casing that this fits in.
