Soldering & Repair - Electronics

Soldering is a skill that allows you to produce or repair:

• circuits,
• models
• or artistic products.

It's unbelievable, but there are not many professionals who know how to solder well.

In this book you will learn:

• what tools are needed for soldering,
• how to solder,
• how to deal with difficult to solder tarnished surfaces,
• how to make the simplest tool for practicing soldering;
• can solder be reused;
• what should be heated with a soldering iron tip;
• what can the mouse eraser help with;
• how practitioners protect soldered elements from overheating;
• is it possible to solder a spider;
• when the voltages add up, and when the current capacities.

Have you ever seen how people professionally solder electronic circuit boards? They are a bit like robots. They stick the tip and solder to the solder point, 1…2…3 seconds and solder another one. The connections are almost identical. Each is correct in shape and structure. The good news is that you don't need any special predispositions for this job.
Do you want to achieve the same proficiency?

Thanks to this book, you will learn how to:

• repair household appliances,
• solder and desolder without damaging the components.

Have you seen how many people are looking for help in repairing electronic devices, household appliances on Facebook groups? The new skill will save you several dozen dollars or earn several hundred dollars on a regular basis by assembling electronic circuits after hours.
