How To Remove Surface Mount IC/smd IC - Learn 4 Neat Methods
Переглядів 326,477
3 роки томуSee 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 UKposts 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 роки тому
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👍

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.

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.

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.

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.

Hi , thank you for your support , much appreciated. I love the 2 soldering iron method so much that I posted a complete video on UKposts 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 👍

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. 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?

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 роки тому
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 UKposts posting showing how good the silver tape works . Hope that helps and good luck 👍

Not sure if I'd use method No.3 as it looks like a lot of temperature stress for the pads and mechanical stress for the IC. I usually use method No.1 but I will try No.2 & 4 one day. Personal note: it's difficult for me to understand you and I have to use subtitles (I'm not an English native speaker) OTOH I have no problems understanding Adrian from Adrian's Digital Basement (USA) or Dave Jones from the EEVBlog (AUS).

Hi . The only method where the IC is not reusable is the one where I cut all the legs off . The lifted leg one can have it's legs gently tweeked back into position and the 2 iron one would just need cleaning up a bit with solder braid . The hot air one is perfectly reusable as well.

Hi , thank you for your comment, much appreciated. I've taken hundreds of IC's off with the hot air + 2 iron methods . When I've had to reuse some of them they have always worked . They can take the heat . Hope that helps , thanks again 👍

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

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 10 місяців тому
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 UKposts with some amazing methods , they may be useful for you . Thank you 👍

You can place a thick copper wire bent in the rectangle shape around the chip and on the terminals ,now add some solder and apply soldering iron for heating,it will melt all the terminals together and you can lift the chip easily.
@mrsolderfix3996 Рік тому
Hi , thank you for your comment. A better way of doing this method is actually forming the shape of the IC with wire and directly attaching it to your solder tip . Less potential for the wire loop slipping as it's firmly attached to the tip . Then like the other method lay it on the IC add solder around joints and hopefully will lift off cleanly . For large 208 pin IC's I wouldn't do these 2 methods as will be really difficult to heat that amount of tiny pads at once , risking loose pads etc. Chip quik is another option that's pretty good . Thanks again 👍

Just Sunscribed. I have always been performing the pin lift method. I never considered cutting the pins if the IC is dead, so why save the pins? I have a repair to make on some 24 pin differential line receivers. I will give this "snip" technique a try.

Would it work with a big solderblob moving arround on top of the IC ?

Method no 4 is very good after REWORK STATION.
@mrsolderfix3996 2 роки тому
Hi . Yeah totally agree . Obviously the rework station is the best but for people who haven't got one of these but may have 2 irons this is the next best solution . Thank you for watching 👍
@Megalocade 3 роки тому
I do number 4 but with one iron and some thick single core copper wire, works a treat evem works for 4 sided ics, you do need a powerful iron though especially on tbe big ics.
@mrsolderfix3996 3 роки тому
Hi . Thank you for your comment. I've done this on a couple of IC's and like you say it does work pretty well . I used a Weller TCP S soldering iron with a DD8 tip fitted and this did do the trick . I might video it one day even though people have already shown this method . Thanks again 👍

The 4TH is the best.
@mrsolderfix3996 3 роки тому
Hi . The 4th option is also my favourite as it's so easy to do . Thank you for watching 👍

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 роки тому
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.

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 місяці тому
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 👍
