hot air rework temp?

Sep 05, 2005 2 Replies

Those of you using hot-air SMD rework stations: what temperature have you found to be best, for tin-lead solder?



If it makes a difference, I'm mainly interested in smaller components such as SOIC-8 and 0805 Rs and Cs, rather than big multipin IC packages.



Thanks!


Have you looked at the resources at Howards Electronics? They have some videos demonstrating SMD rework and lots of articles on the process.
