Sparkfun PINECIL - Smart Mini Portable Soldering Iron

The PINECIL is a smart, compact, and portable soldering iron designed to heat up to operating temperature in just six seconds. Powered by a 32-bit RISC-V SoC, it offers precise digital temperature control ranging from 100°C to 400°C. An OLED display and integrated buttons allow for easy temperature adjustments, catering to tasks from delicate SMD components to robust wire splicing.

Perfect for both dedicated electronics workstations and on-the-go repairs, this soldering iron offers maximum flexibility and safety. Its dual power options allow you to use a high-wattage USB-C cable (supporting PD and QC 3.0) or a standard DC5525 barrel jack, making it compatible with existing bench supplies or tool batteries.

The auto standby feature, powered by a built-in IMU, detects motion and automatically reduces the temperature to sleep mode when idle. This not only prevents burns but also extends the life of the soldering tip.

Pre-loaded with open-source firmware, the PINECIL runs on Ralim's IronOS, offering customization and community-driven features not typically found in standard soldering irons. The included B2 soldering tip is easy to install, and the lightweight plastic body with a metal clip ensures comfortable handling. Simply connect to your power source, set your desired temperature, and continue building with ease.
