{"title":"SparkFun Simon Says - Through-Hole Soldering Kit","handle":"sparkfun-simon-says-through-hole-soldering-kit","url":"/products/sparkfun-simon-says-through-hole-soldering-kit","description":"This is the latest version of our popular through-hole Simon Says Kit. We’ve made some changes to the board that should make it easier than ever for the beginner to build! All components are through-hole, making this kit a great place to start when you’re learning to solder. When building this kit, you’ll have a chance to solder a 28-pin microprocessor, LEDs, battery clips and more.\n\n After you have successfully assembled the kit, you will have a greater knowledge of through-hole soldering and the tools, techniques, and terminology required to populate your own PCB prototype. You will have a development platform with 5 outputs (LEDs and buzzer), 5 inputs (buttons), and serial for debugging. And, of course, you’ll have your very own Simon game!\n\n Checkout the assembly instructions - we’re pretty proud of them. The kit even includes batteries! Assembly time varies, but for a true beginner with no soldering experience, the kit can take 20-40 minutes to assemble. A soldering iron and wire cutters are the bare minimum tools required. We scoured the earth and found a really fantastic beginner’s soldering iron for $10, solder for $2, and wire cutters for $2. We also have a Learn to Solder version of the kit which includes all the tools you’ll need!\n\nKit Includes:\n\n\n1x ATmega328 - pre-programmed with Simon firmware\n1x Buzzer\n2x 0.1μF Cap\n1x 10K Resistor\n4x LEDs (blue, yellow, red, green)\n2x Slide Switch\n4x Battery Clips\n2x AA Batteries\n1x Button pad\n1x Bezel\n4x Standoffs and screws\n1x Assembly instructions\n\n\n\n\n\n\nNote: This video was made using the older version of our Simon kit, so there are a few components that won’t be in the same place as in your kit, but the parts are still the same so the video should still be helpful.\n\nDocuments:\n\n\nSchematic\nEagle Files\nSoldering Tutorial\nAssembly Instructions\nBootloader Note\nCode\n\nGitHub (Design Files & Example Code)\n\n\n\nReplaces:KIT-09883","vendor":"SparkFun","product_type":"physical","in_stock":true,"options":[],"variants":[{"id":12694,"title":"Default Title","sku":"SF-KIT-10547","price":59.77,"compare_at_price":0.0,"on_sale":false,"in_stock":true,"available_quantity":1,"option1":"Default Title"}]}
