There will be a workshop on Surface Mount Soldering at TechShop on Saturday, 19 December from 1 – 5pm.
So, you have a circuit board and a bag of parts you need to assemble. Or you’ve designed a circuit board in Eagle, gotten it fabricated, and you just got it back. Now you see that the parts which looked so big in Eagle are actually REALLY DANG SMALL. What are you going to do? How are you supposed to solder that?!
Working with tiny Surface Mount parts is challenging but can be done in the comfort of your own home. Come to Dorkbot’s Surface Mount Soldering Workshop, presented by Jim Larson, held at OpenTechSpace at TechShop, on Saturday, December 19th, 2009 from 1pm to 5pm.
When you’re done, you’ll have a step-up voltage module to take a AA battery up to 5V.
To sign up, email smd-workshop@denizen.org.
Cost will be $35, payable at the class.
Please bring:
- A soldering iron
- A pair of tweezers
- A pair of wire cutters
Class will be held at:
Electronics Lab (OpenTechSpace)
10100 Southwest Allen Boulevard
Beaverton, OR 97005
Great job Jim & Laen! So many possibilities with this technique.
I see a Freddy’s hotplate in my future!
