Soldering

Soldering is a process in which two or more metal items are joined together by melting and then flowing a filler metal into the joint—the filler metal having a relatively low melting point. Soldering is used to form a permanent connection between electronic components.

The Task:

Just to know about soldering we had to fix on a PCB a simple led lighting circuit.

The Circuit Components:

1. A led

2. A resistance 10K

3. A Battery/Power Supply 5V

4. A push Button

The circuit drawn simply on Eagle:

​

Tools:

 

• Soldering Iron.

• Tweezers.

• Wet Sponge.

• Soldering Stand.

• Safety Glasses.

 

Safety:

​

• Never touch the element of the soldering iron....400°C!

• Hold wires to be heated with tweezers or clamps.

• Keep the cleaning sponge wet during use.

• Always return the soldering iron to its stand when not in use. Never put it down on the workbench.

• Turn unit off and unplug when not in use.
