Re: issue while soldering plz help.
You may have poor quality solder wire that doesn't have flux inside at all or maybe it's doesn't have flux throughout it's length (some no-name Chinese solder wire has very little flux inside and in irregular density).
You need some flux to cover the surfaces you want to solder so that there's no microscopic layer of oxide preventing solder from chemically binding with the metal.
Another possible reason for not getting a nice solder is too hot solder chisel/gun - if this is the case the flux may evaporate too fast and leave you with just the solder that goes nicely in a ball and sticks above the oxide layer.
And last... you probably know this but if you're using a soldering gun, don't hold the solder on the tip of the tool - warm the metal ring on the board and the wire of the capacitor with the solder tip and touch the two with the solder wire from the opposite side.
Here's some good tutorial about soldering. The second part shows the best examples:
part 1: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J5Sb2...layer_embedded (at around 9 minutes in he explains about flux and various types of solder)
part 2: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fYz5n...layer_embedded (see esp. at about 2-3 minutes in)
part 3: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b9FC9...layer_embedded (a bit of specialty soldering - smd and chips with lots of pins)Last edited by mariushm; 09-10-2011, 02:28 PM.

by acedogblastThis is a guide that I am writing for helping others to replace their MEC1503 EC chip if it breaks (or to get around an inconvenient prompt to the BIOS). This forum has been extremely helpful to me so I would like to contribute to help others. I will tell you right now that this task is very difficult to do. You MUST have experience and tools to do precision micro-soldering, BGA reballing, trace repair, and general laptop repair skills.
There are some specialty tools needed to do this task. The replacement MEC1503 chips can be acquired from Aliexpress. Do not buy the bare chips as... -

by evilkittyNow that my de-soldering gun is working i was able to remove this panel i made about a week before i noticed a issue the F segment of digits 2 and 3 would go out, digit 2 would go before digit 3, but would come back after the humidity got down from running the ac (note the weather outside is 30.5 / 74%; panel data is from a BME280)
Temp is on the left humidity is on the right
i noticed when the humidity got up one or 2 of the center digits on the right panel would loose a segment
The pin out looking down from the top is (note this is common cathode)...-

by novice1Laptop name Acer Aspire E5-574G. Processor = i7-6500u. GPU = NVIDIA GEFORCE 940M. Motherboard Model = DA0ZRWMB6G0
This laptop was not powering on at all so I started investigating. The blue light would come on for a second, and then disappear. Fan would sometimes turn on for a second and then shut off immediately, and at other times would not turn on at all.
To start with, about 3 months ago I had no clue about soldering, motherboard schematics, board view, and then I stumbled about this forum and other stuff online. I have never done any of those before. But to ask... -
by chth96I want to purchase any good flux remover But "chemistronic flux off es835b" is the most common flux remover in my nation..
Is it good to use chemistronic flux off es835b for flux remover?
Or I have to purchase "3m novec flux remover" which is quite expensive in my nation? - Loading...
