You have some fine pitch soldering to do, but all you have on hand is a big soldering iron. What do you do? There are a few possible answers, but [Mr SolderFix] likes to pull a strand from a large ...

In the solder paste process (SMT), the minimum safe distance between the SMD pads and the inline pads is recommended to be 0.4mm to 1mm. this distance effectively prevents solder paste bridging, ...

WEP 992D-III 2-in-1 Soldering Station and Hot Air Rework Station - High-Power Soldering Iron Kit with C245-compatible Cartridge, 1000W Hot Air BGA Rework Station for SMD, IC Repair Guangzhou Yihua ...

TDK has created a range of surface-mount high-current common-mode chokes. “Customers who prefer reflow soldering but need high-current common-mode chokes can now get an SMD solution,” according to the ...

What constitutes a perfect solder joint? Despite being a relatively straightforward process, there are nine distinct soldering problems that can cause boards to fail QC tests or, worse, fail in the ...

In the surface assembly process of electronic products, especially in the high-volume reflow soldering process, the tombstone effect of passive chip components to the PCBA assembly soldering adds a ...

It’s usually possible to solder ‘ordinary’ SMD components using a low-power soldering iron and small-gauge solder. However, it’s a completely different story when you have to solder a component in a ...

Abstract: In this paper, we present the application of the novel fluxfree soldering process for assembly of standard SMD components on a PCB. A standard SAC305 (Sn-3.0Ag-0.5Cu) type 3 powder is mixed ...
