COF Cables to panel repairable ? Help needed

[bohaboha]

Accident happens have bumped off a Cof and want to restore it but can't find the right way to do it. have looked at several videos but can't find anyone who uses the T type of soldering that I think is the easiest and I have it but have never used it. Is there anyone who can tell me how to use it and how much heat should i have, preferably a small tuto would be very good

I thought this wasn't possible, curious if someone knows also

Need new ACF tape but time ago it was sold in expensive reels, now i don't know, probably there is at shorter quantity

Flux, some low-temp solder, and practice in some other boards to get a hang of it. Not much to it, clean the stripes, position correctly ( the hardest part ) and slide/press with the T tip.

Thank you all for your replies

So your saying a line on the screen could potentially be fixed if I take off the cof ribbon and resolder it back on using this tape?

Interesting videos a few different methods I see. Looks like I'm gonna pick up one and have some fun experimenting. Good deal

A single subpixel vertical line is due to bad soldering on the cof (the chip), bad cof output (shorted internal transistor etc..) or oxidation and bad insulation on the flat output joint to the glass panel , in each case the T type tip is unuseful! T type are intended for simple little monochrome lcd displays like for handheld calculators, termostat, alarm keypads..

Okay, but let's say a whole section from the cof turned green, like I recently had, or just a whole section in general had interference this could potentially be repaired then?

I'm not sure what a t type tip is actually

[Davi.p]

with a certain color tint, with luck can be repaired i think

Hi Davi.p so you mean in my situation the t type soldering is useless? can you please elaborate Your thoughts therefore as you may have seen in the video he uses such a t soldering type

you wanted to try here another video that maybe you would see : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lF0xOC3ymGU

bohaboha i was replying to eazybone, in your case the T could be ok, but the rubber strip reduces the heat much so must use high power.. a 80w iron minimum

is the ACF tape a must or can i use something else ? if so what can i use? because i do not have it just now

[Davi.p]

What do you want to use, a strip of cheese? Obviously need acf, is a special material

lol Then I have to wait until I get it home
thank you

hey when you've tried can you tell the resolt

you say i have to use high power 80w but in the market all i find is 30,40,60w and even my own is same 60w
