The Great Search: Solder Paste Syringe for Hot Plate Rework
from Adafruit Industries · host Adafruit Industries
This week we had to do some reworking of an ESP32 module that has pads underneath. When this happens, we have to apply paste using a syringe to the pads and then heat up the PCB and module together with a hot-plate or hot-air machine. Solder paste syringes are super handy to have and have a long shelf life. Let's look at some options on Digi-Key and which ones you'd pick based on your rework or solder needs!
