This neat soldering iron can run from 9-25V DC, and provides a power range that is determined by the input voltage. Voltages below 12V don't overly work well for any substantial mass.
## Why new software for a soldering iron
The original software for the iron worked really well, except that if you wanted to change most of the settings you had to connect it to a computer via USB and edit a text document.

This software aims to work as a complete re-write of the software for the iron, using the code from minidso as a reference. The project is built using System Workbench for STM32 from [Open STM32](openstm32.org).

Most of the code for the system has been completely re-written for this implimentation, attempting to move to hardware peripherals for all the IO rather than software driven events(as the minidso firmware does).

## Current Status
The firmware is considered stable, and should be great for everyday use (Lots of users already!).
Currently the dev branch has the current development code (naturally).
The firmware is usable for all hardware features, main work now is just on user interface design.
PID performance of the iron is not exactly the same as stock firmware, however its performance matches or exceeds the original firmware.
Always more than open to ideas and pull requests to add features / improve things.
