Welcome to SchmartBoard! SchmartBoard is the destination for people who want to hand solder surface mount (SMT) components. Are you an engineer, technician, educator, student or DIY hobbyist who has avoided utilizing SMT components? Those days are officially over, because with SchmartBoard practically anyone can hand solder SOIC, QFP, PLCC, QFN, and discrete surface mount components.
Forget all of those difficult hand soldering techniques and special surface mount soldering tools. With SchmartBoard hand soldering surface mount components is even easier than hand soldering through hole. Instead of denying yourself the most current chip technology or paying a fortune for prototyping, you can now use today is most advance chip technologies in your circuits. SchmartBoard|ez makes hand soldering SMT parts fast, easy and flawless.
Our Mantra at Schmartboard is "Electronics for Everyone". When we say this we mean it. We do not mean as long as you are using through hole components, or if you have hands as steady as a surgeon. We do not mean you can do it unless you are using a QFN device either. We mean that if you have at least reasonable motor skills you can work with any pitch component,
This opens up a new world for many engineers, hobbyists and students. We can teach a 10 year old, who has never held a soldering iron, to hand solder a .4mm Pitch chip...flawlessly, in 1 minute.
