See how to remove a surface mount IC / SMT IC using 4 great different methods with and without the use of a hot air rework station.
These 4 different methods for how to remove surface mount ic's can be carried out using a variety of standard tools so there is a method for everyone as I appreciate not all viewers will have a hot air rework station.
2 and 4 sided IC removal can be easily achieved by following these short tutorials on all 4 methods with clear guidance and tips throughout.
Please note if your IC's have a HEATPAD underneath the body you will need option 1 , the hot air pencil method.Also if you are using the 2 soldering iron method PLEASE make sure the board is not powered up when performing this option.
All these IC removal methods are proved and trusted and with some care you will easily achieve your IC removal successfully without a problem.
Finally if you found this video of use please consider my other RU-vid soldering tutorials and be sure to not miss out on any future releases by subscribing and turning on the notification button.
Thank you for your time and good luck.

That 4th option is really genius

@mrsolderfix3996 3 года назад

Hi . Thank you . The 4th option is my favourite also . It really is so easy to do this with 2 Soldering irons , and is really safe. I love using 2 irons for lots of my rework , in fact I also have posted a video totally showing the uses of 2 soldering irons . Everyone should get a 2nd iron. Thanks again👍

@TruthInAdvertising987 Год назад

I concur. I’ve been an EE for 20+ years and have never seen the 2-iron method. Well done.

Very nice videos and nice explanation in your channel! Very useful videos for learning soldering skills. Just about the solder wick I would say is better not to drag it on the pads but just tap it instead. In some cases, it could ruin the pads.

@orionred2489 2 года назад

I used to have a gizmo for old DIP chips that did this from the other side of the board. It looked like a rows of staples that attached to your iron. You'd flip the board and heat from the bottom and the chip would fall out the other side.

@jeffreyyap6725 2 года назад

If you have fast hands, you can do this with 1 iron and alternate, you got your second hand for a tweezer to remove the chip

@mrsolderfix3996 2 года назад

@ES-iv6wb Год назад

Hi. Great video, as usual. What aluminum tape do you use to protect other components when using a rework heat gun? And.. you mentioned you don’t normally use the tape when there aren’t plastics around. Would you say I would be wasting my time putting up alum tape around components of 32 IC chip? Or it’s worth my while?

@alexanderbonnot Год назад

Methods 1 and 4 are the most reasonable, I think. They're the most similar to the recomendations in the IPC 7711/7721. There are actually solder tips designed for this kind of removal as well. I wouldn't suggest using a blade near the board or putting your board through the stress of method 3.

@MarkHopewell 2 года назад

Another interesting method we were taught in the 90's was as follows:- 1: Run a fine gauge wire down the back of one side of the IC pack and the inner facet of its pins - similar to the way a shuttle cock runs inside threads in a weaving loom. 2: Solder the tip of the wire to the last pin on the run. 3: Take the free end of the wire and while heating the pins, gently tease the wire outward and upwards. 4: Repeat this "teasing" movement along the length of one side of the IC package until all pins on the one side are free of the pads. 5: Repeat this same process for the other side of the IC pack. 6: Clean and prepare PCB accordingly for the new device.

4th option is very easy . I have also made it

@ianparsons1257 2 года назад

You make it look so easy & good that you took your time so people new to this like me can follow easy enough. I’ve just bought a hot air station which has temp & air flow. Im interested in eeprom chips 8 legged. Does your method 1 apply for me ? You advise 360 temp but what about air flow ? My settings is 1-8

@mrsolderfix3996 2 года назад

Hi , thank you for your comment , much appreciated. You should be able to do the component you mention , no problem. My air ratings are different , mine go from 0 to 150 and to do this type of component I would normally have it on about 90 . So going by this figure you would probably need the air on about 4. Sometimes if your struggling to get parts off it's worth upping the air and not the temperature , this can really work well. Don't forget , if you have delicate plastic parts near by that could melt , protect them with silver foil adhesive tape ( I done on old RU-vid posting showing how good the silver tape works . Hope that helps and good luck 👍

@mrsolderfix3996 Год назад

Hi , thank you for your support , much appreciated. I love the 2 soldering iron method so much that I posted a complete video on RU-vid showing some of the instances when 2 irons makes work so much easier . I have all the hot air stations etc needed to do soldering rework but at times 2 irons is so much better than a hot air station . Surrounding components for example can shift if your not careful when using hot air also plastic connectors can melt . Why protect all these when you can quickly rework with 2 irons . My best tip to anyone who solders is to get 2 irons . There are certain times when it's a godsend . Thanks again , good luck with all your soldering projects in the future 👍

Awesome vids… I’ve watched many of them today! What’s the best size wick to buy for SMD, if only buying one size? 1.5mm, 2mm, 2.5mm, 3mm, etc.? Also, what brand/kind of flux for SMD? I’m gonna buy 0.015” (.38mm) wire for SMD. Also, just use my old cheap Weller pen iron, and file some tips down sharp for SMD. I’ve been soldering regular sized thru-hole components on occasion for many years; but no experience with SMD… gonna practice with SMD soon.

@mrsolderfix3996 2 года назад

Hi . Thanks for watching the videos , much appreciated. I generally prefer 1.5mm wide solder wick , anything smaller is hard to use , and the real wide stuff to me just doesn't suck the solder up as well . I've done a video on the flux I use ( SMFL200D ) which also covers some solder wicking . You will see the type and make of wick in this video . If you haven't seen it already it might be useful for you . You can also get 0.25mm solder ( BLT Circuits ) based in England , this is the size I love the most , especially good for real tiny work . Good luck 👍

Hi , thank you for your comment , much appreciated. I love the idea of 2 irons , in fact I've posted a complete video on RU-vid showing the benefits of using 2 irons . Thanks again 👍

@carolinbanglor 2 года назад

great and I wana to know what loop or microscope you used for this video and for soldering and desoldering components?

@mrsolderfix3996 2 года назад

Hi , thank you for your comment. I use a stereo long reach microscope for all of my detailed work , purchased from a company called GT Vision based in England , I have their own branded one . It's very much the one I would always go for as it allows you to pretty much get any size circuit board underneath it . Prices for these vary from a few hundred upto thousands but I've just got an average model that's plenty good enough . Hope that answers your question . Thanks again

I'm curious what temperature you run your soldering irons at? Always enjoy your videos and definitely learn something every time, thank you.

@mrsolderfix3996 4 месяца назад

Hi , thank you for watching the video and commenting , much appreciated . Generally if I'm using leaded solder I use roughly 330 degrees Celsius and for lead free solder I up the temperature to about 360 - 375 degrees Celsius . I may vary these slightly if for example you have a large ground plain but usually these mentioned temperatures would suffice . Hope that helps , thanks again 👍

Just used a variation of your method 4 to remove a sop 8 ic. Blob of solder on both sides to connect the leads, use a large chisel tip iron, then alternate back and forth heating the solder on both sides until they melt and the ic slides off. I imagine it would have been easier with two irons, but only had one and didn't take hardly any time. I can't recommend a good flux paste though; without my solder was sticking everywhere it could. Cheers

Hi , thank you for watching the video , much appreciated. The way you have done it is a perfectly ok way , lots of people do it this way , even I have , but it just makes it a little easier and safer with 2 soldering irons . Thanks again , take care 👍

With the 4th method and help of God you can do many things without a heat gun. Thanxs 😁😅 I hope use this knowledge soon for in a repair at one motherboard

Thank you for this video, really helpful. What temperature are you settling for the iron solutions ? Best Regards, Didier

@mrsolderfix3996 3 года назад

Hi . Thank you for your comment 👍 When I use the 2 soldering iron solution they are both set to 340 - 350 degrees . This does no damage at all to components if done correctly . In fact I have done a complete video on the benefits of 2 soldering irons for rework , it's a great method . The hot air rework station is generally set to between 330 and 375 degrees. Hope that helps , thanks again .

@DRI1966 3 года назад

Thank you for your prompt reply, this will help me a lot. I was used to use lead free and this temperature is bellow 300. Now I know why it was so difficult to remove the chip.

@mrsolderfix3996 3 года назад

Hi . When you do lead free you need about 350 . Leaded solder will generally be ok at 325 degrees 🙂

@animatrix1851 2 года назад

@@mrsolderfix3996 what is your air speed set to in percentage?

@mrsolderfix3996 2 года назад

Hi . In this video the hot air rework air speed was set to about 100 . I do use higher if I'm doing a large QFN or QFP for example , likewise if I'm doing a tiny IC I will lower the air sometimes down to 30. I use a Quick 861DA rework station . Thanks again for your comment , much appreciated 👍

Dear sir video very good for us. But please help me with two types of SMD. which I can't find in the catalog. 34DG and L44. I don't know what they are! Transistors or diodes. I'm waiting for your answer, if you're good and want to help me. Thank you so much!

When desoldering use 2 soldering irons! Absolutely the best way.

@medroastt9888 11 месяцев назад

Good tutorial, thank you. Just for reference, how big is the ic in the video (L x W) in mm? Does these methods work for small ic (8 x 18 mm) with 2 x 10 pins?

@mrsolderfix3996 11 месяцев назад

Hi , thank you for your comment. The IC in the video measures 10mm by 4mm , but the 2 iron method I have used for IC's double this size with no problems . If you cant get all the pins to join ( they may be spread out more ) just place a piece of wire along both rows of pins and solder this way . I've done many other more recent removal videos on RU-vid with some amazing methods , they may be useful for you . Thank you 👍

Is it okay to use a heatgun from a dremel gas soldering iron, or would that likely cause damage. On a tight budget and trying to replace a usb on a tablet

@mrsolderfix3996 2 года назад

Hi , to be honest , I wouldn't know if your heatgun option would be safe , as it's something I've never tried personally . Hopefully you can work something out . Good luck with your project , thank you for watching , much appreciated.
