WEEK 11

TITLE : Install and solder the component in breadboard.


METHOD : 

1. Surface preparation.

2. Component Placement.
3. Apply heat.

4. Apply solder to the joint.





5. Inspect the joint and cleanup.


CONCLUSION :

The choice of solder is also important. There several kinds of solder available but only a few are suitables for electronics work. Most importanly, you will only use rosin core solder. Acid core is common in hardware stores and home improvements stores, but meant  for soldering copper plumbing pipes and not electronic circuits. If acid core solder is used on electronics, the acid will destroy the traces on the printed circuit board and erode the component leads. It can also form a conductive layer leading to shorts.
