EZ Discrete #1 supports 0201, 0603, 0805, 1206,1210, 1608, 1812, 2010, 2512, & CAES-A, B, and C. EZ Discrete #2 supports SOT23-3, 5, 6, SC70-5,6, DPAK, D2PAK, SOT223, TO263-7, SOT89, 0805, 1206, & CASE-A, B, C, D and E. Many of these components are very small and require a magnifying glass to see, let alone hand-solder without creating shorts. The boards lock the component in place on the board, and are hand-soldered by touching the board with the soldering iron next to the component.
The SchmartBoard|ez line of prototyping boards was launched in September 2005. The technology makes it possible for novices to hand-solder difficult components quickly and flawlessly the first time they pick up a soldering iron. The family of boards allow engineers, students and hobbyists to hand solder surface-mount components and expanded their capabilities in creating electronic circuit projects.
