What is Solder Paste? Solder paste, also known as solder cream or tin paste, is a mixture primarily used to bond metal components together. It has a complex composition, consisting of solder powder, flux, and other additives, depending on the specific requirements of the solder paste. Solder paste possesses a certain level of viscosity, allowing […]
What Is Soldering Flux? The soldering flux is a chemical substance that helps and facilitates the soldering process, while having a protective effect and preventing oxidation reactions. Flux is widely used in the brazing of watch and clock instruments, precision parts, medical devices, stainless steel crafts, tableware, mobile communications, digital products, air conditioning and refrigerator

What is Wave Soldering? Wave soldering refers to the process of creating a desired wave-shaped solder pool using a molten solder alloy (lead-tin) through an electric or electromagnetic pump. The solder wave can also be formed by injecting nitrogen gas into the solder pool. In this process, a printed circuit board (PCB) preloaded with components
Wicking solder is a common issue encountered in the electronic industry. It occurs when the solder flows away from the intended pad on a Printed Circuit Board (PCB) and accumulates on the surface, entering nearby via holes and tracks. This article will provide an in-depth understanding of wicking solder, its causes, effects, and potential solutions.

What is a Cold Solder Joint? Cold solder joints, also commonly known as pseudo soldering, are one of the bad solder joints produced during the PCBA or SMT process. Because the solder joint lacks the formation of good intermetallic compounds (IMCs), it creates an unreliable connection between the pcb components and the substrate, which can

It’s important to have the right tools for your electronics project. One of the most important tools when working with electronics is solder pad. This article has everything you need to know about soldering pads and which ones are best for your project. What is a Solder Pad? A solder pad is a small copper
Solder mask and copper PCBs are both common manufacturing processes. A solder mask is a technique used to keep copper traces from oxidizing. The process involves applying solder, applying a layer of photo-resistant material, and then exposing the board to ultraviolet light. This causes the areas that need to be covered in solder masks not
When building a circuit, you’ll often need to connect circuit board components together. Soldering wires to a circuit board is a basic technique for making connections between components. NOTE: Soldering is a highly technical skill that can be dangerous if not done correctly. It is best to have a friend or a mentor to learn
