I am designing a DC-DC boost converter using an SMD LM2623 and an inductor which is also SMD of 4.7 μH. I want to first build a prototype but I can't use an ordinary breadboard. Could someone please advise me whether there is a way I can mount SMD components for testing?
Secondly, I have failed to get an electronic simulator having LM2623, does someone know any simulator which can help me do my circuit analysis?
