I also have a hot air reflow gun that will solder this for you in 2 min.  I can bring it to NB next week if you want to use it.

Subject: [Noisebridge-discuss] SOIC-14 SOT-8 surface mounting reflow oven?
 
So there's this chip that I just gotta have for a project I am working on.  The only problem is that it seems like EVERYTHING in IC form now it packaged in these teensy little surface mount chips.  I don't have a small enough soldering iron and I'd rather not hassle with trying to make it work with my shitty equipment.  

Wondering if sudo or Noisebridge is set up for a solder reflow oven with an accurate temperature control?  Also, I am not totally clear about how I create a silkscreen soldering setup for a given PCB design.  Does anyone on this list have a lot of experience with this?

Thanks,
Cere
