Reflow sol dering is also not difficult to do as a hobbyist\, but requires a few more tools like a stencil to apply solder paste and either an oven or a hot pl ate to do the reflowing. It is\, however\, much quicker than soldering the parts one by one\, and can yield more professional looking\, cleaner\, so lder joints.\n\nThe project is an electronic name-badge - You should write your name (or nick) on it and wear it. It contains 42 LEDs\, a microcontr oller\, some support components and an InfraRed transmitter and receiver t hat allow it to communicate with other badges. When the badge detects the presence of other badges ("friends") nearby\, it will change its behaviour . It will not only interact with other 39C3 LED badges\, but also with TBD badges - come visit the TBD assembly at komona or https://tbd.camp\n\n![T BD badge](https://usercontent.events.ccc.de/congress/2025/hub/usercontent/ e/d619de5f1be1/tbdbadge.png)\n\n### Costs\nThis workshop is donation based . Materials costs are 2 euro per badge. Donations will go towards 1) cover ing costs of the badges\, 2) covering costs of running the hardware hackin g area in general\, 3) covering costs of organizing TBD (see the TBD assem bly at komona or https://tbd.camp)\n\n### Registration\nThe number of part icipants per session is limited. First come\, first served. Either get a p articipation voucher beforehand or show up early (there may be places left ).\nThere will be *numbered* paper vouchers available for each session som e time in advance of each session. If you get a voucher and do not show up *before* the designated starting time\, someone else may take your spot. Please don't take multiple vouchers and don't take vouchers if you don't actually plan to participate.\n\n### Getting a kit\nKits are part of the w orkshop and not for sale separately. You can\, however easily source your own PCBs and parts and make kits yourself because the design is MIT licen sed open source.\n\n### Links\nhttps://github.com/hackwinkel/39C3LEDbadge \n LOCATION:Hardware Hacking Area -- Front-middle URL:https://hub.test.c3voc.de/en/event/detail/39c3-led-badge-smd-for-begin ners-day-2 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT SUMMARY:39C3 LED badge -- SMD for Beginners (Day 3) DTSTART:20251229T090000Z DTEND:20251229T113000Z UID:a47bb589-980f-4c6f-98de-972c93969a42 CATEGORIES: DESCRIPTION:Full details: https://hub.test.c3voc.de/en/event/detail/39c3-l ed-badge-smd-for-beginners-day-3\n\nDescription:\n### 39C3 LED badge -- SM D for Beginners\n\n![39C3 LED badge](https://usercontent.events.ccc.de/con gress/2025/hub/usercontent/b/7dccaedbb7ec/39C3badge.png)\n\nSurface Mounte d Devices (SMDs) are small compared to Through Hole (TH) electronic compon ents\, and have the reputation of being difficult to work with as a hobyis t: Difficult to see and handle\, when you sneeze\, you loose them and you can not easily use them on 2.54mm raster prototyping boards.\n\nSMD compon ents are designed to be used in a reflow soldering process where tiny dots of solder paste are applied to a Printed Circuit Board (PCB)\, after whic h the SMD components are "Picked and Placed" on the PCB\, after which the whole PCB is heated to the melting point of the solder ("reflowing")\, act ually completing the electrical connections.\n\nThis workshop is aimed at showing you that the reputation of being difficult to work with is a bit undeserved\, and that you can also work with SMDs using just a regular so ldering iron: With some simple tricks and a suitable selection of componen ts (not the smallest possible)\, the vast majority of people can successfu lly complete this project.\n\nBeing able to solder SMD projects using just a simple soldering iron will also help you develop some skills that are u seful if you need to do "rework" on reflow soldering projects.
