Looking for some input

Post by devsfan1830 »

I've been trying to figure out a way to integrate a 360 wireless controller reliever for windows INTO my computer case by rewiring the button and led to new ones embedded in the case. So far I've been able to isolate the solder points for the button, but its the LED that's proving to be an issue.

Below is an image of the PCB. I need someones input on how i would solder LED leads to points the size of a pin tip.

Very carefully.

Welcome to the wonderful world of hacking devices with surface-mount components. ;)

Hope you've got tweezers and a magnifying glass. Without them, well, you're screwed :P
