Description: This is the latest version of the Simon SMD soldering kit, the surface mount version of our popular Simon Kit. It's considered an intermediate kit for people who have soldered before and wish to learn how to solder surface mount components. Don't worry, we've added extras of the small components to help you out if you misplace a super tiny resistor. You will need your own programmer though (we don't include a battery either, you probably have one laying around). You can find an external programmer (which you'll need to program the firmware onto the ATmega328) listed in the related items below.

We've made a lot of subtle changes to the latest version which make it easier for someone to solder with little surface mount experience.
