SMTTiny13ISP Project Completed

I completed the SMTTiny13ISP project and posted the project online.  Kits and parts have been added to the shop.

The SMTTiny13ISP is the project is created to program all those Tiny13v/a SOIC chips I'm using in the SMTCylon project.  Just as I promised, all CPUs from me are coming pre-programmed.  This is the tool I use to do it.

The circuit was just a bit too small and complicated for surface mount, so there are two jumper wires.  Very ugly.  Think I'm going to have to simplify those a bit i the next rev.  But this is a great image of how to clamp and program a Tiny13 using the kit.  A CPU is even included in the full kit!

The new packaging working out great, and looks good on this very simple kit.  Drilling the holes for this kit is going to be a real pain in the tail.  So, I'm charging a bit more for the board by itself.  I set the kit price at a little under $5, including a blank CPU.
