49. WHAT IS SOLDERING
• Soldering is the process of joining
metal leads, creating a mechanical
and electrical bond. As shown in the
figure, the lead of the resistor and the
pad of the circuit board are
mechanically attached and electrically
connected.
50. WHAT IS REQUIRED
• The tools needed for the soldering process:
– Safety glasses
– Soldering iron
– Solder
– Wire cutter
– Damp sponge
52. WHY SAFETY GLASSES
• It is important always to wear the
safety glasses during the whole
soldering process to protect your
eyes against boiling solder particles
that fly up while the solder is melting
and pieces of leads that might fly in
any direction when they are cut.
53. WHAT IS A SOLDERING IRON
• The soldering iron is the tool that is
used to heat the joint. It has a tip that
is heated by an internal heating
element.
55. WHAT IS SOLDER
• Solder is the material that melts on the
joint attaching to both the component
lead and the pad on the circuit board.
56. WHAT OCCURS WHEN SOLDER MELTS
• As the solder melts during the soldering
process, it attaches to the component lead
and the pad.
• The flux flows into the joint dissolving existing
oxides on the leads and preventing the
formation of new ones. This facilitates the
formation of a good soldering joint.
58. Prepare component for mounting.
• In this step you bend the leads of the
component at 90 degree angle to fit into the
holes of the circuit board. You can do this
with your hand or with the help of pliers. Be
sure that the leads are bent at the right
distance from the body of the component so
they fit comfortably in the holes on the board.
60. Mount component on board.
• In this step you insert the leads of the component into
the holes on the board, from the component side. The
body of the component should rest on the component
side of the board.
• It is a common incorrect practice among new students to
install the component on the soldering side (foil side) of
the board instead of the component side, or to install the
component away from the surface of the board, instead
of resting on the surface of the board, as shown in the
figure.
62. Bend component leads slightly.
• After you have inserted the leads of the
component into the holes on the board, you
should bend the component leads slightly to
hold the component in place while the board
is turned over to be soldered.
64. Clean iron's tip.
• Before you start soldering and after the tip of
the iron has heated up, the tip of the iron
should be cleaned on a damp sponge and
tinned, by melting apiece of solder on the
iron's tip and then wiping the tip on the damp
sponge again.
• The tip of the iron should always have an even
shiny metal surface from the solder. Each time
oxide forms on the tip, clean the tip on the
damp sponge to make it shiny again.
66. Apply heat.
• In this step you apply heat to the joint to be
soldered by touching the tip of the iron firmly
against both the component lead, and the pad on
the board, simultaneously. Allow about three
seconds or more for the joint to heat up before
applying the solder.
• This is one of the most important steps in the
soldering process. If you do not heat up the joint
(lead and pad on the board) sufficiently you will
get a cold soldering joint which will have to be re-
soldered.
68. Apply solder.
• After the joint has heated up, apply solder to
the point where the lead and the pad join.
Apply enough solder to create a "mountain "
of solder that attaches to both, the lead and
the pad, as shown in the drawing of step 8. A
common problem among new students is to
apply too little or too much solder, neither is
good.
70. Remove solder.
• After the solder has melted on
the joint forming a nice
connection as the one shown in
steps 8 and 9, remove the solder
wire from the joint then remove
the iron.
72. Inspect the soldering joint.
• After the joint has cooled off, visually inspect the
joint that you have created. It should have a shiny
and smooth surface and it should attach to both
the component lead, and the pad on the board. In
the next transparency we will see what good and
bad soldering joints look like.
• If, during the inspection, you recognize that your
soldering is not good, you will have to re-solder
the connection by reheating the joint with the
iron, until the solder melts and then applying a
little more solder.
74. Cut off component leads.
• After you have soldered a joint the next step is
to cut off the excess component lead using a
wire cutter. Trim the lead off the component as
close to the solder joint as possible. This is
another important step in the assembly process
that can not be avoided because untrimmed
component
• leads might cause short circuits between
metallic traces on the board.
75. Good solder joint.
As we have said before, a good soldering joint has a
shiny and smooth surface and attaches to both the
component lead, and the pad on the board.
76. Cold solder join: You can recognize a cold solder
joint because it is dull (not shiny) and irregular (not
smooth). Cold solder joints do not make good
electrical connections and should be re-solder.
77. Solder not attached to lead: In this type of
defective soldering joint the solder is attached
to the pad of the board but not to the lead of
the component.
78. In this type of defective soldering joint
the solder is attached to the lead of
the component but not to the pad on
the board.
Solder not attached to pad
79. This problem is caused by not
trimming the component leads after
soldering the joint.
Leads not trimmed
80. Leads not trimmed.
• Leads that are not trimmed pose a
potential problem because they can
be touching each other or touching
other parts of the pad, producing
short circuits and damaging the
components. Never leave untrimmed
leads after the soldering is
completed.
81. Solder bridge:
• Solder bridge: A solder bridge is a bridge
made with solder that is connecting two pads
(or foil traces) that should not be connected.
Sometimes solder bridges are easy to detect
and other times they are so tiny that they can
only be detected with the use of a magnifying
glass.
