SMD = Surface Mount Development I believe. If you have ever taken the cover off your phone or similar thats what it looks like, except a little bigger (phone stuff is usually smaller than what you would have to deal with tho!).
You could look at using something like a LM135?? With an opamp (gain), and a dc offset to cal it and then you could use a $10 Digital Multimeter (DMM) to display the result in mV or something (and have the reading on the DMM as deg C)?
lol, prbly not the most elegant solution? 
But its an idea...
