Electronics hobbyists, this one’s for you!

Soldering those tiny SOT23-8 SMD chips can be a pain, but these SchmalzTech adapters make it a breeze.

This pack gives you 5 pieces of the ST-SOT23-8 adapter, which converts that tiny 8-pin surface-mount package into a standard through-hole DIP footprint.

They’re made from high-quality FR-4 double-sided PCB material.

Just solder your SMD chip onto the adapter, and then plug it into your breadboard or perfboard like a regular chip.

It measures 0.6\ by 0.5\, so it’s compact but easy to work with.

Note the California Prop 65 warning about cancer and reproductive harm—it’s a standard label for electronics components.

Whether you’re prototyping or doing a final build, these adapters are lifesavers.
