looking for tiny parts for paper electronics

Post by jdawg »

I wanted to start doing some holiday cards and I am having trouble googling for what I need.

I want some very tiny smd led's to light up when a card opens up.
I saw that adafruit had their new paste pen out. and on their picture I saw what I wanted, but I can't find the parts.

At some point I will want to do more than just led's but it is a start. Is there a web site (or what can I effectively google for? smd led doesn't seem to cut it!)

You'll probably want to look at the major distributors like Mouser (http://www.mouser.com/) or Digikey (http://www.digikey.com). That's where most of us buy our parts.

They have huge selections, and multi-parameter search tools that let to sift through the options to find the parts with the features you want.
