Soldering is a process that joins two or more metal items together by melting and flowing a filler metal called solder into the joint. A soldering iron is used to heat the metal parts while solder is applied. Solder has a low melting point between 90 to 450 degrees Celsius, allowing it to flow and bind the parts together electrically and securely. The key steps are preparing materials like a soldering iron, solder and circuit board, heating the joint with the iron, and applying solder so that it flows smoothly into a volcano shape between the joining pieces.
This document provides an overview of the tools and techniques required for soldering. It lists 13 essential tools for soldering, including a soldering iron, solder, wire cutters, pliers, desoldering equipment, magnifier, ventilation, and safety glasses. It outlines 6 important soldering tips: cleanliness of components and tools; tinning the soldering iron tip; applying adequate heat to both the component leads and PCB simultaneously; controlling heat duration; applying sufficient solder; and proper handling of static-sensitive devices. Precautions for soldering safely with hot equipment are also noted.

Soldering is a process that joins two metal items by melting and flowing a filler metal with a low melting point into the joint. Safety precautions for soldering include using it carefully to avoid burns, unplugging it when not in use, and avoiding touching the hot tip to power lines to prevent electric shock. Flux is used to remove oxides from parts being soldered to allow the solder to bond better. Lead-free solder is preferable to avoid lead hazards, especially for children. Proper tools and components are needed for successful soldering, and planning is important before starting.
Soldering is a process that joins two metal parts by applying heat and using a filler metal that melts at a lower temperature than the base metals. The filler metal, usually an alloy of tin and lead, provides stability and conductivity when it cools and solidifies. There are two main types of soldering - hard soldering uses silver or zinc alloys for joints that require high strength, while soft soldering uses tin-lead alloys for electrical and electronics work where flexibility is important. Basic equipment for soldering includes an electrically heated soldering iron, soldering wire, flux to prepare the surfaces and aid bonding, and a stand and sponge to manage the iron tip.

Surface Mount Technology (SMT) refers to a specific type of electronics assembly where electronic components are attached to the surface of a substrate (typically a printed circuit board).
SMT is a modern alternative to traditional thru-hole technology where components are attached to substrates by leads that passed through holes in the PCB.
Surface Mount components require less space so SMT is helpful in product miniaturization.

Welding is a process that joins two metal pieces by heating them to melting point and allowing them to fuse together. Various welding processes include electric arc, gas, thermit, resistance, and friction welding. Fluxes are used to prevent oxidation during welding. Gas welding uses the heat from combustion of a fuel gas like acetylene with oxygen. Resistance welding uses high current to heat and fuse the joint. Electric arc welding generates an arc between an electrode and the workpiece to produce welding heat. There are many types of arc welding including manual, TIG, MIG, and submerged arc welding. Proper preparation of the workpiece, parameters like current and speed, and welding positions are important for quality welds.
The document discusses the transition from leaded to lead-free soldering. It notes that lead-free solder has a higher melting point and poorer flowability than leaded solder, making joints more difficult to form. Several problems can result, including poor solderability, overheating, cracking and solder coming off. Special equipment and techniques are needed to address these issues when using lead-free solder, such as nitrogen gas systems, hot air tools, and soldering irons with precise temperature control and special coatings. Following proper procedures for cleaning, heating and solder application is also important for achieving reliable lead-free solder joints.
Electric welding involves joining metals through heat generated by an electric current. There are several types of electric welding processes. Resistance welding uses high current to heat and join metals at points of contact between electrodes and generates heat based on resistance. Arc welding uses an electric arc to melt metals and can use consumable or non-consumable electrodes with shielding gas. Carbon arc welding is a process that produces coalescence of metals by heating them with an arc between a non-consumable carbon electrode and workpiece.

Formation of metal to metal joint using solder.
The joint is made by alloy formation of base metal and
solder.
In soldering, there are four key elements: Iron, Solder,
Flux, And Component; they all are important.
Flux cored solder wire is used for hand soldering

4. 2.1 Electronic Component
Electronic components are basic electronic element or
electronic parts usually packaged in a discrete form with
two or more connecting leads or metallic pads.
There are main three types of Electronic components
1. Active Component
2. Passive Component
3. Electromechanical
4
5. 2.2 Classification of Parts
Active Component: Those devices or components which
required external source to their operation is called Active
Components.
For Example: Diode, Transistors, SCR etc
Explanation and Example: As we know that Diode is an
Active Components. So it is required an External Source to
its operation. Because, If we connect a Diode in a Circuit
and then connect this circuit to the Supply voltage., then
Diode will not conduct the current Until the supply voltage
reach to 0.3(In case of Germanium) or 0.7V(In case of
Silicon)
5
6. 2.2 Classification of Parts
Passive Components: Those devices or components
which do not required external source to their operation
is called Passive Components.
For Example: Resistor, Capacitor, Inductor etc
Explanation and Example: Passive Components do not
require external source to their operation.
Like a Diode, Resistor does not require 0.3 0r 0.7 V. I.e.,
when we connect a resistor to the supply voltage, it starts
work automatically without using a specific voltage.
6
7. 2.3 Difference between Active and
Passive Components
Active Components:
Those devices or components which produce energy in
the form of Voltage or Current are called as Active
Components
Passive Components:
Those devices or components which store or maintain
Energy in the form of Voltage or Current are known as
Passive Components
In very Simple words;
Active Components: Energy Donor
Passive Components: Energy Acceptor
7
9. 2.4 Type of Packages
There are many different type of Surface Mount Packages.
Each time a new SM package is developed a new name is
created. These names are usually abbreviated by their
initials.
For Ex. The Quad Flat Pack is commonly known as the
QFP.
The word Package is refer to the components physical
shape or outline.

12. 3 Flux Function
What does it do?
12
During soldering chemical reaction takes place. The flux removes all
the surface tarnish leaving clean metal underneath.
13. 4.1 Solder Wire
13
Solder is a fusible metal alloy used to create a permanent bond between
metal and workpieces.
You should be aware of following while choosing solder wire
Lead (Pb) Content
Flux Content
Wire Size
15. 4.3 Variables in Cored Solder Wire
Solder Alloy
Most use Sn60/Pb40 or Sn62/Pb36/Ag2 or LEAD FREE
Flux Type
No-Clean RMA (Rosin Mildly Activated)
o Flux residue are safe to leave on PCB. They will not cause corrosion or
electrical breakdown of ckt during its lifetime.
Flux %
1, 2 or 3. Higher flux % makes soldering easier but can leave more
flux residue which can make solder joint look cosmetically dirty
Wire Diameter
Select the right one for the required job
Reel Size
Generally 500gm.
15
16. 4.4 Type of Solder wire
There are two main types of solder:
Lead-based solder
Lead-free solder
*The main practical difference between the two is the melting temp.
Lead-based solder: It was made of a mixture of tin and lead. Usually a
60/40 (tin/lead) mix, that melts at around 180-190 degree C.
Because lead has some damaging effects to our health. The industry is
moving away from lead and towards lead-free solder.
Lead-free solder: It is solder without lead. Now it is recommended to
use lead-free solder (RoHS) because of the health hazards of lead.
It has a higher melting point, so it is bit harder to work with, but usually
not a problem.
16
17. 4.5 Flux Content
Solder wires usually have a core inside the wire containing flux. Flux is
designed to improve electrical contact and mechanical strength in
solder joints.
There are mainly two types of flux cores
Acid core - Used for plumbing
Rosin core - Used for electronics.
So use rosin core only, But there are four types of Rosin Flux
R Rosin
RMA Rosin Mildly Activated (Preferably used)
RA Rosin Activated
AC Non-Rosin Activated
17
18. 4.6 Wire Size
For basic electronics work, a solder wire between 0.711 mm to 1.63 mm
diameter is good enough. However, solder diameter is determined by the
gauge number.
For restoring antique computers for the museum, and repairing
vintage circuits that have huge solder tags, normally gauge 16 used.
For PDIP and through-hole packages that have a standard pin
spacing of 0.1-inch, gauges 18, 20, and 21 is preferred.
For SMD components such as SOIC packages where the pin spacing
is much closer, then a fine tipped soldering iron with a 22 gauge
solder wire works well.
18
21. 5.3 Construction of Tip
21
A tip is mainly made up of Copper
core, to ensure good heat transfer.
Iron plating is done on copper
core to make it thermally
insulative (Heat should be
transferred in proper way)
Nickel layer is plated after iron
to make non-wetting to keep
solder wicking away from the
tip.
Chrome plating is done at last
as a protective layer.
22. 5.4 Types of Solder Iron Tip
22
Bevel Tip: It can be used for solder jobs that require pre-
loading the iron with solder.
The large flat surface can hold more solder than most
other tips, and its helpful when soldering small-gauge
wires together or dragging solder across surface-mount
chips to solder multiple pins at once.
Chisel Tip: With its broad tip, the chisel tip helps to
evenly deliver heat to component leads and pads.
This tip is great for soldering wires, through-hole
components, large surface-mount components, and for
desoldering as well.

Conical Tip:
Conical tips are usually used for precision electronics
work, though theyre also often used for general
soldering. The pointed tip helps deliver heat to small
areas, such as tiny surface-mount components.
24. 6.1 Type of Soldering
There are mainly two type of soldering :
24
27. 6.5 Melting and Diffusion
Alloy is formed by melting and diffusion of metals
Tin and Copper together makes alloy formation
27
It takes certain amount of time to create the
perfect solder joint. Too slow process can
damage PCB/Component and too fast will
not create a sound joint

38. 7.8 Solder tip condition-1
38
This tip has soldered 1000 joints. The tinned area is still shiny and smooth.
There is no charged flux adhering to it. Only use the tinned area to heat up
Joint area. It helps the heat to be transferred quick/consistently. Using the
none Tinned area of the iron will cause soldering problems.
39. 7.8 Solder tip condition-2
39
The tinned area is dull and inconsistent and there is lots of charred flux
adhering to it. The ability of this tip to transfer heat to the solder joint is
significantly impaired by its poor condition.
45. 7.13 Key points for heating
What is the appropriate temperature for soldering???
Joint area temperature = The M.P. of Solder Alloy + 40~50DegreeC
For Sn60% solder
Joint area temperature = 190DegreeC+40~50DegreeC
= 230~240DegreeC
However the iron will be set much hotter at 350-450DegreeC
Note: The hotter the iron faster the joint can be made providing
the heat transfer from it is good.
Must try to heat up both/all parts to be soldered at the same time
If it is difficult to do this then evaluate special solder iron tips
Heating up more than needed, will cause overheating defects
Note: Using a very hot iron will increase the risk of soldering
defects and component damage. Soldering is a balance of time
and temperature.
