Title: Help Soldering LEDs
Post by: psp339 on January 15, 2008, 07:44:50 PM

Can someone tell me how to solder the 0603 LEDs. I prepared the sound mod chip and all i need to do is to solder the LEDs. I havent had any success. How would i hold the soldering iron?

dont hold the soldering iron. just put it on a post so its facing toward you. get some flux and flux both the wires end and the end of the led (holding the led in tweezers). put some solder onto the iron so it makes a bubble of solder. make the wire touch the bubble make the led touch the bubble (not to long). then touch the wire and led to the bubble at the same time (together/touching) and wala there you go good luck have fun late.
