Experiment 8: Mini Project

AIM:
1) To know how to do soldering and desoldering of components on PCB.
2) To solder the components in the given PCB to make the complete circuit.
3) To simulate the given circuit using any circuit simulator (Multisim, PSpice,
LTspice, SEQUEL, etc.).
4) To verify the output of the soldered circuit.

APPARATURUS & COMPONENTS REQUIRED:


Components with specification mentioned in the project kit, Soldering iron,
Soldering wire.

THEORY:

A) Explain soldering and desoldering process.


Soldering Process

1. Solder needs a clean surface on which to adhere.


• Buff the copper foil of a PC board with steel wool before soldering.
• Remove any oil, paint, wax, etc. with a solvent, steel wool, or fine sandpaper.
2. To solder, heat the connection with the tip of the soldering iron for a few seconds, then
apply the solder.
• Heat the connection, not the solder.
• Hold the soldering iron like a pen, near the base of the handle.
• Both parts that are being soldered have to be hot to form a good connection.
3. Keep the soldering tip on the connection as the solder is applied.
• Solder will flow into and around well-heated connections.
• Use just enough solder to form a strong connection.
4. Remove the tip from the connection as soon as the solder has flowed where you want it to
be. Remove the solder, then the iron.
5. Don't move the connection while the solder is cooling.
6. Don't overheat the connection, as this might damage the electrical component you are
soldering.
• Transistors and some other components can be damaged by heat when soldering. A
crocodile clip can be used as a heat sink to protect these components.
7. Soldering a connection should take just a few seconds.
8. Inspect the joint closely. It should look shiny.
• If you are soldering a wire (called the lead) onto a PC board (on the track), it should
have a volcano shape.
• If the connection looks bad, reheat it and try again.

9. Wipe the tip of the iron on a damp sponge to clean it. The tip should now be shiny.
10. Unplug the soldering iron when it is not in use.
Desoldering Process

One of the nicest ways to desolder a component involves using a desoldering pump. A
desoldering pump is essentially a small, high pressure vacuum. After heating up the solder, you
can use the desoldering pump to suck the solder up and out of the way. Here are the basic steps
for using a hand-powered desoldering pump:
1. Heat up the solder you want to remove with a soldering iron (some desoldering pumps also
come with attached irons).
2. Press down on the plunger (If your pump has a bulb, just squeeze the bulb).
3. Once the solder is molten, place the tip of the desoldering pump against the solder that you
want to remove.
4. Release the plunger or bulb. Some desoldering pumps have a release button so that you don't
have to hold it the whole time.
5. Remove free component.
6. Repeat steps 1-4 to remove any excess solder.
7. Dispose of the solder inside the pump by repeatedly pressing down and releasing the
plunger.

B) Explain the working of the circuit with the help of circuit diagram.

PROCEDUCE:

1) Learn how to do soldering and desoldering of components on PCB.


2) Identify the components given in the project kit.
3) Arrange them on PCB.
4) Solder the components to complete the circuit.
5) Verify the desired output.
6) Simulate the circuit using any circuit simulator (Multisim, PSpice, LTspice,
SEQUEL, etc).
7) Record the video demonstrating the working of implemented circuit and simulation
output. The start of video must indicate course name, academic year, name of instructor,
name of students with UID and division. Upload the video on Moodle.
