Nests build, Humidicon fabrication... need help

#1

I am slowly starting the process of building the NEST project. Trying to do it from scratch, learning as I go. I am a novice web guy with no experience in Hardware.

I got the Honeywell Humidicon part but its tiny… How would I make that work with a breadboard? I assume fabricate something? How did the Spark guys do it?

I know this is a noob question. Thanks for the help.

We simply had to hand solder it. It was tricky but we did it. Ideally you can get a SOIC 8 breakout board for chips like those. Something like this: https://www.sparkfun.com/products/494
