    They will have to be crimped on. You can't solder them, first because the element will melt the solder, and second, the solder won't stick to the nichrome wire.

      the terminals came away from the element it looked like they are put on with some kind of cement if it was an cheap one I would just buy it but this is a Philips at over £70 I am wondering if I could spot weld it

        Yeah spot welding will probably work too.

          Best way to solder LVDS connector for beginner (and qfn) ?
          by corrize
          Hello, I'm a beginner for micro soldering. Right now I have some difficult to solder a qfn 20, I guess I put too much solder on the thermal-ground pad, the result is a corner of chip wich don't touch the board (last try).

          I use a wire solder with hot air, I tin the board and chip before with iron and I use good flux.

          I will have to solder a LVDS connector (40 pins, laptop pc), I saw a solder paste in seringe, good quality (it does not scatter).
          See the test :

          With hot air from bellow the board, that's...

          Gigabyte H610M S2H V2 help to identify the element.
          by flysky
          There is a motherboard Gigabyte H610M S2H V2 (DDR5), I can't find boardview
          Help to identify the element, marking on the element - C31PH. It stands next to the USB 3.0 and it looks like it is ESD Protect chip. We need a datasheet to this element. Maybe someone has already identified such an element. Help please.​

          UV solder mask - high temp resistent, recomendation?
          by myth77
          Can someone recommend any good UV solder mask? But i need a solder mask that will stand high temperetures. The thing is...sometimes i have a bigger cooper ripped from the board, lets say mosfet pad... i reconstract it with cooper sheet, then i "glue it" with solder mask...then i use UV light...and let it cool a bit. After, i try to clean the cooper of extra solder mask..and till that part all is ok. But, when i use a soldering iron to solder that pad/cooper...the solder mask gets weaker or destroyed and finally the pad is ripped again from the board .
          Is there any solder mask...

          BGA solder balls not connecting - help pls
          by petemanuk
          So I though in my spare time I’d set myself up repairing motherboards mainly pin damaged lga1151 sockets types.

          I’m using an achi ir sc pro rework station (gave up on my Achie ir6500 - don’t recommend)

          I’ve managed to get my rework profile somewhere in the correct region (after a lot of trial and error) to get the old sockets off and reflow new ones back on again, the problems I’m getting is not all of the solder balls are re-attaching when re-flow occurs. I know this because when socket is removed pads still look clean and have no solder...

          The best way to drive a heating element?
          by EasyGoing1
          I've got this circuit that I've been playing with on a breadboard. I'm not happy with it mainly because the MOSFET gets too hot and generally controlling the temp of the heating element with the Arduino has proven to be a little more cumbersome than I would like.

          What I would like to know, is what is the best way to set up a circuit like this? The heating element is just a PCB and its going to be mounted under a 3D-printed enclosure that a lizard will use to warm his belly.

          This is the general setup that I have now.



          This is what the...
