About this kit

Sie möchten Ihre Lötfähigkeiten unter Beweis stellen? Dann ist die SMD Challenge genau das Richtige für Sie! Löten Sie SMD-Bauteile ab der Grösse 0201 und stellen Sie sie auf die Probe, indem Sie das LED-Lauflicht per Tastendruck laufen lassen. Machen Sie sich keine Sorgen über den Verlust oder Bruch von Komponenten! Ihr Kit enthält zusätzliche Teile.

Nehmen Sie die Herausforderung an!

Dieses Kit enthält ausserdem die erforderliche Dokumentation, um dieses Board aufbauen, testen und verstehen zu können.


What you'll learn
  • SMD soldering across all standard package sizes — 1210, 1206, 0805, 0603, 0402, and 0201
  • How to identify and fix cold joints, bridges, and tombstoning on SMD components
  • How the 4017 decade counter IC works — clock-driven sequential LED output
  • Soldering iron tip selection and temperature control for fine SMD work
  • Circuit debugging using a multimeter and visual inspection
  • How to use flux and soldering technique for very small packages (0402 and 0201)
Prerequisites & difficulty
Advanced
  • SMD soldering experience (0805 or smaller before attempting this kit)
  • Understanding of resistors, capacitors, and LEDs in a circuit
  • Basic PCB debugging skills
    • Note: Not recommended for beginners — start with the Soldering Practice Kit first. A microscope is essential for 0201 components.

    FAQ

    Is this suitable for beginners?

    No. This kit requires existing SMD soldering experience. Start with the Soldering Practice Kit first if you're new to SMD.

    Do I need a microscope?

    Strongly recommended for the 0201 components. A digital microscope or quality magnifier makes a significant difference at that scale.

    How do I know if I've passed?

    Connect USB-C power and press the button. All 10 LEDs lighting sequentially confirms every solder joint is correct. Any dark LED points you to the problem.

    Our approach

    Want to see how our documentation is different?

    Every MSD kit ships with an engineering design guide written by the person who designed the board. Not a pinout diagram — a real document.
