Surface mount adapter boards (05/08/11)

Here are some simple adapter boards to allow various surface mount devices to be used on a breadboard. You can buy such things, but it's much easier to make them to suit. Image files for each board are available below. A "holding arm" is very useful for holding the components in place while soldering them.
