The quality of the soldering has a tremendous impact on the overall quality of the PCB. Through soldering, different parts of the PCB are connected to other electrical components to make a PCB ...

Flux is commonly utilized in the PCB assembly industry with several of its usage ranging from the cleaning of component leads to reflow/wave soldering. The use of halide and non-halide flux have each ...

Continued pressure for electronic devices that provide greater functionality in ever-smaller form-factors is not only providing the driving force behind developing smaller surface-mount components and ...

I'm going to be celebrating the 38th anniversary of my 21st birthday next month (coincidentally, it will also be the 29th anniversary of my 30th birthday). The reason I mention this is that my eyes ...

Using a regular plunger style solder sucker is tedious at best, and usually not that effective. If you’re trying to salvage components off a PCB, sometimes it can take longer than it’s worth to do — ...

In this guest blog post, taken from the Eurocircuits blog, Ben Verwaest considers whether hand-soldering can reach the same high quality result as reflow or wave soldering. In this guest blog post, ...
