The soldering process has always presented challenges in large scale PCB applications. Perhaps the largest challenge is the risk that the high temperatures of tooling and soldering could cause damage ...

This results in some solder joints being heated more quickly than others, loss of medium from the system due to the cup effect - and a negative influence on the soldering profile. In order to ...

What automated soldering methods can be considered for Mini-Circuits surface-mount components? There are two basic methods: reflow and wave soldering. Generally, reflow soldering can be done when (l) ...

Ditch that old toaster oven and move to the next level of surface mount soldering with this vapor phase reflow method. [Ing.Büro R.Tschaggelar] put together this apparatus to use vapor phase reflow at ...

We won’t pretend to fully grok everything going on with this open-source 8.5-digit voltmeter that [Marco Reps] built. After all, the design came from the wizards at CERN, the European Organization for ...
