Vishay Intertechnology, Inc. has introduced a new series of insulated, surface-mount inrush current limiting positive ...

Abstract: The thermomechanical reliability of surface mount components (SMCs) is closely related to the reflow soldering process. With the rise of board complexity, an optimal reflow profile must ...

Improper paste viscosity and incorrect reflow ramp profiles are just a few of the root causes. Solder balls are small, spherical metallic balls that can form on circuit boards, typically around the ...

A manufacturer’s perspective on determining parts layout. A land pattern refers to the footprint or layout of surface-mount components on a printed circuit board (PCB). It includes the arrangement of ...

Ok, so I'm trying to replace some joysticks on PS5 controllers. I've tried stuff like this in the past to mixed success. I have a cheap solder iron and solder pump. This is not fun. Soldering? Not ...

Soldering is an essential technique used to join electronic components, metal sheets, and pipes. By using a heated soldering iron and solder paste, the two pieces being joined are bonded together.

Abstract: This paper describes mounting of standard surface mount component packages on a paper substrate using an industrial solder process with a low-temperature solder. The use of paper as a ...
