3.2. Safe and correct soldering

! Caution:
Incorrect soldering can cause dangers through fires and heat. Avoid these dangers by
reading and following the directions given in the chapter Safety instructions.

Use a soldering iron with temperature control, which you set to approx. 300 °C.

Only use electronic solder with a flux.

Never use soldering fluid or soldering grease when soldering electronic circuits. These
contain an acid that destroys components and conductor paths.

Solder quickly: Soldering for too long can detach solder pads or tracks or even destroy
components.

Hold the soldering tip on the soldering point so that it touches the wire and the pad at the
same time. Add (not too much) solder simultaneously. As soon as the solder begins to flow,
remove it from the soldering point. Then wait a moment for the solder to flow well before
removing the soldering iron from the soldering joint.

Do not move the created solder joint for about 5 seconds.

A clean, non-oxidized soldering tip is essential for a perfect soldering joint and good
soldering. Therefore, before each soldering, wipe off excess solder and dirt with a damp
sponge, a thick damp cloth or a silicone wiper.

After soldering, check (preferably with a magnifying glass) whether connections or tracks
have been bridged with solder by mistake. This can lead to malfunction or destruction of
components or, in the worst case, the complete circuit. You can re-liquefy excess solder
with the clean hot soldering tip. The solder then flows from the board onto the soldering
tip.
