I created a video to demonstrate how I drag solder QFP chips onto PCBs. This one being a CPLD for a PiStorm 600.

  • Very good job !
    What is your iron temperature and which tip size please ?

    • Hi Manu, many thanks!

      Off the top of my head I believe my JBC is set to 340°C, around that mark anyway. The tip is a 1.9mm spoon, JBC C245965.
