I use a hot air station to remove ICs from circuit boards. I found that sometimes the laminate on the board will lift up. Does anyone know what to do to prevent this, other then using a lower heat setting.

Re: Hot Air Station
You answered your own question basically. Your heating the board too fast at too higher heat. You need to start low then work up to the point to whatever solder on the board melts. Known as hot air preheating.Please Do Not PM My Page Asking For Help Badcaps Is The Place For Advise, Page Linked For Business Reasons Only. Anyone Doing So Will Be Banned Instantly !

Re: Hot Air Station
I believe that the use of a pre-heater for the underside of the board is the answer. This helps to minimize the heat stress.Willing to help but I'm no expert.Comment

Re: Hot Air Station
The use of low melt solder and lots of flux will help on most ICs, but if you are talking buffer ICs that have solder tabs on the rear then preheating the back of the board with hot air is a mustComment

Re: Hot Air Station
Flocko is correct. Pre-heat the board on underside till topside is around 120-150 degrees (Use IR Thermometer if unsure), Then proceed on the top side--and DONT rush it!
Can take around 10-15 minutes to remove a buffer-chip carefully, sounds to me you are just going WAY too fast and scorching the crap outta the boardTELEFIX

Re: Hot Air Station
Hot air has its place in some jobs,but for IC removal I think a temp controlled iron and low melt solder wins every day. on a crowded PC board (T.Con and the like) with hot air you can blow small components off there pads never to see them again, and the board can end up looking like a war zoneComment

Vizio e601i-A3 - Has Sound and Display, But No Backlight - Bad Power Supply Board or Bad LED Bulbs ?I was given this TV from my great uncle. He said it just wouldn't turn on one day out of nowhere, replaced the TV, and gave it to me to possibly fix and use for myself.
Upon bringing it home and plugging it up, it showed a standby light.
I powered it on and without a flashlight, the display showed the "V" but the lighting is very dim, but visible.
The screen seems to blackout and stay black, but with a flashlight I can see the display.
With my Playstation 4 connected via HDMI, and running a game I can hear sound.

Hi, this is my personal laptop, which the original board (lets call it Board A) blew up PU8700 (TPS51486), making a hole on the board, i had left the laptop at my desk one day with the battery fully charged and didn't touch it for a week, but when i tried to turn it on it didn't
Thought the battery was dead, so i plugged in the charger then tried to power on, the power LED blinked once, charged LED still orange, unplugged the charger, plugged in again and I noticed the "magic smoke" smell, so i unplugged the charger, removed the back cover and saw the blown IC (the "magic... -
Problem
This is an LG edge LED lit LCD Display. The LEDs are on the bottom edge of the display. There are 2 bars (left and right) Each bar has many LEDs and a 6 pin connector. Each pin drive several LEDs thus is the highest current flow / heat junction. The weak lead free solder gradually fails with thermal expansion/contraction cycling and increases resistance. PSU will compensate up to a point, then when the current is too high, PSU just shut down the backlight causing a dark display. I have even seen one which the connector just fell off as solder points became completely detached.... -
All left and right refers to looking from rear of TV (or looking from front with TV upside down)
- TV came with vertical bars and no image. Found faulty TVS on left buffer board. Also replaced T-Con (may have damaged the original while hot air removing components, board has slight warp) and have full image but few horizontal lines on the screen. Some of the lines appears to be 2 pixel tall while others are 1 pixel tall.
- Disconnecting left and right buffer board potentially reveals problems on both sides with different signals (unless this T-Con require jumper like Samsung FB_TRDY1&3) Fault

Hi There,
This TV was auto switching off after few seconds with some vertical lines on the screen, so got a new TCON board and replaced it.
After replacing the TCON board it was working fine and i set it up with everything, used for few hours, then had the bright idea to update the software on it. During the update process, TV switched off and now no audio or video. No relay switch sound.

Got the same exact TCON board from TVPartsToday and replaced it. But didnt transfer the EPPROM data (didnt...
