With affordable tools like hot air and hotplate reflow ovens, electronics enthusiasts are shrinking their projects down to new levels of portability. Unfortunately, It's not always easy to get your hands on small amounts of SMD parts so here's a part that every project could use more of: tiny little LEDs. That's right, each pack includes 25 tiny green 1206 SMD LEDs in cut-tape packaging. These are great for status lights or for building really small LED matrices. Don't expect them to be super bright, they're basically the standard green LED that shows up on our LilyPad Micro LED boards, and are slightly larger than a 0603 SMD LED. images are CC BY 2.0 SHARE SMD LED - Green 1206 (strip of 25) Product Help and Resources SKILLS NEEDED Core Skill: Soldering This skill defines how difficult the soldering is on a particular product. It might be a couple simple solder joints, or require special reflow tools. Skill Level: Competent - You will encounter surface mount components and basic SMD soldering techniques are required. See all skill levels 3 Core Skill: Electrical Prototyping If it requires power, you need to know how much, what all the pins do, and how to hook it up. You may need to reference datasheets, schematics, and know the ins and outs of electronics. Skill Level: Rookie - You may be required to know a bit more about the component, such as orientation, or how to hook it up, in addition to power requirements.
