Solder joint faults can be described with a single word – pernicious. Solder joints connect the BGA package, containing an FPGA (Field Programmable Gate Array) core, to the PCB (Printed Circuit Board) ...

When you learn to solder, you are warned about the pitfalls of creating a solder joint. Too much solder, too little solder, cold joints, dry joints, failing to “wet” the joint properly, a plethora of ...

Imagine you’re out behind enemy lines in WW2, setting up demolition charges that may save the lives of your fellow soldiers. How do we make a solid connection between wires that will last? One of the ...

Intermittent problems with electronic modules or circuit boards are often the result of a cold-solder joint. Cold-solder joints are quite common in remote-keyless-entry fobs, electronic ...

One of the most significant challenges in the electronics industry is the formation of voids in solder joints. Voiding typically occurs when flux or solvent in the paste becomes trapped in the joint, ...

In conjunction with the release of its latest soldering procedure, the Mechanical Contractors Association of America’s (MCAA’s) National Certified Pipe Welding Bureau (NCPWB) encourages contractors to ...
