Description
The XL741 kit is sold as an easy-to-build soldering kit.
It includes the circuit board, resistors, transistors and capacitor that make up the electrical circuit as well as printed assembly instructions. The kit also comes complete with the 'IC Leg' stand, and eight colour-coded thumbscrew terminal posts.
To build the XL741 kit, fundamental electronic soldering skill and tools are required. Soldering tools are not included, and you will need to use your own.
You will need: a soldering iron, solder and small ('flush') wire clippers, as well as a Phillips head screwdriver
The kit features easy construction and should take roughly an hour to build.
Kit size
- The XL741 kit printed circuit board is 5.215' x 3.175' (13.25 cm x 8.06 cm) in area, and (nominally) 0.100' (2.54 mm) thick.
- Including the 'Integrated Circuit Legs' stand and terminal posts, the overall size of the assembled kit is 5.215' x 3.9' x 1.70' (13.25 cm x 9.9 cm x 4.3 cm).
