Geez, someone who actually knows how to teach. Thank you sir.
I love the presentation and the soft background music. It's like I'm watching surface-mount soldering with Bob Ross. :-D
Lots of happy caps, Hell let's be brave an stick a 20 watt resistor over the top for no reason .....
@Anson Lyric bad bot
At first i thought it was the GTA San Andreas theme really quiet in the background 😂
never thought I'd be watching a soldering video with such high production. I'm a surgeon, and I am impressed with the meticulous attention to detail here. Excellent job!
Thank you! I stopped using my skills after college in a job that was a mistake and am trying to get a job in automation and need to retrain my soldering skills.
The calm, concise nature of this video and tips were incredible for me and I really appreciate it. Some of the things you did here I didn't learn in college or at my job. I'm going to buy some good equipment and start practicing! going to look into more of your videos. I have some old electronics I can use to get better at desoldiering. I need to look into cheap supplies for SMT practice.
Thanks again.
This video is a metaphor for life.
Clean up before you start.
Use the appropriate materials for the job, so you don't mess things up.
Do one thing at a time.
Put things away when you are done with them.
Be careful not to touch things that are extremely hot.
Sometimes high-end parts are used to record noise.
It doesn't have to be perfect.
Amen! My next video will be on how to write a philosophy book (just kidding).
I knew I could trust you by the googly eyes
They make everything sound and work better!
Yeah
Hi
@@LeoMakes
I just subscribed.
Can I pay you to do a
small job on my PCB ?
I have a bios chip that needs to be removed and transferred to the other board.
The PCB is from a hard drive. Please let me know I'm willing to pay somebody if you want to know more info I can explain further thanks.

As a tech from the late 80's to now, this video is a good value for the novice and production quality is on par ( I am a videographer as well ). Well done.
That is a cool little product.
Thanks for the info on hand soldering surface mount I'll have to go pick up a few smaller things for the fine soldering
This was helpful, and your calming voice has soothed my worries about frying my first SMT board! Thanks.
I just soldered smd voltage regulators for the first time as a test and decided I like them. Next pcb I'll add resistors and caps. I will make sure to clean the board first with alcohol. Great video, thanks for posting.
The fact that the Elektrosluch is stereo really makes it. So cool.
Totally! I did not expect the noises to be so directional but you can really hear it on headphones when you sweep the device around the room.
Hey there just wanted to say, fantastic channel. Keep up the good work.
wow the demonstration - that is actually so cool to hear
Excellent presentation! Good tip about the thin solder
This was perfect, great for beginners! Can’t thank you enough!
Actually gives me some confidence I might be able to fix the rather fragile output jack on my NTS-1! Thanks for making this video! 😃
Thank you very much for posting this video, you've exposed the mystery of SMD components for me! 🙏
It’s like things are alive, I love it!
Nice video. Thanks! I love the eyes on the extraction hose o.o. Great advice too about getting one thing out at a time. There's nothing worse than *stuff* all over the place when working. It takes the fun out of it.
Thanks for the tips. Just ordered a sample resistor/capacitor book.
you make it look so simple, ill give it a shot one day
Thanks for this video - right now i'm planning to go SMD with my projects and this was really helpful. Btw you got a new sub!
Very interesting video. I have done through hole soldering but never surface mount. Looks like you need great vision and a very steady hand, but not difficult.
Hey Man, thanks for this video. I now feel confident enough to order parts for a mutable instruments ripples:) Great work!
Love the googly eyes on the hose!
Thanks. I managed to solder my very tiny component after straggling so much.
Thank You for the video. I have a 3D printer that my micro USB port came off of it's board and I need to solder it back on. The printer doesn't have a display like most do today and the only way to monitor it is through a computer plugged into the micro USB. This gave me the know-how on how to properly do it, instead of winging it.
Thank You,
Frank M.
Absolutely love your content. Keep it up!
Perfect soldiering techniques 🌹👍
Thanks! With your help I've finished my Pulses expansion for turing machine module (eurorack). I thought it's impossible for me.
Great video! I was wondering what temp the iron was on ?
You make it seems too easy! Thanks so much for the tutorial!
Great video! Clear speaking really helps us with bad hearing, Thank You!
Right tool for the job.. my iron tip and solder diameter was great for automotive work, but getting the thinner solder and the fine tip for the iron, that will help as I solder to micro switches and learn to work on smaller scale electrical. Thank you!
Yep, soldering only a single SMD component value at a given time is a REALLY good tip! Thanks for the video, I think it helped me a lot!
Glad it helped!
Thanks, Leo, this is a great and cool tutorial and practice about the SMT Soldering and applications devices to detecting the Noise of the electronics active component, but away the background music is cool
Really great video with a ton of extra information baked in. I would've never thought about the beveled chip with the double lines; and wasn't expecting to learn that in this video. Good stuff!
Thanks for the video. I just got my first surface-mount assembly job. I was trained 30+ years ago to do through-hole soldering. BOY! The component size difference is insane. My eyeballs are already freaking out.
This was absolutely incredible.
Very nice demonstration. I do production, mostly through hole but always a few sm op-amps. For those opamps I'll put a little noclean flux on the pads, a drop of solder on the iron tip, use tweezers to place the part then just touch the solder to the pad/leg interface and it just sucks it up. Don't use rosin flux as you can't get it clean under the chip. thanks.
Always been intimidated by SMD, I thought you needed ovens and paste and masks and stuff. Thanks, my life is changed!
that was such a useful macro view thanks. I was just wondering if there was a specific temperature of the iron I should be using when doing surface mount parts.
Dude you have rock steady hands. You should be a surgeon.
Thanks, I will receive a fume extractor in few days and I can't wait to start to solder.
I got a first problem to solve, instead of releasing the fume in my house, I would prefer to evacuate the fume outside. So I need to find a way to achieve to make it more safety.
Thanks for your video
Great video! Very helpful. The nicest thing was hearing solder pronounced correctly!
It's amazing, it helped me a lot, thank you for sharing.
Awesome! Very easy to understand! Thanks, alotsssss
This is a nice and clean and good job, well done !
Great video! Could it be used as a non contact audio or rf probe specifically in troubleshooting audio gear such as tube amps or old tube radios? Thanks again.
Put clear masking tape over the labels in that sample book when they are new. I have two and with both, the stickers deteriorated and tried to fall off within a matter of months. I live in Thailand which is very humid but expect this would happen anywhere. Great video
Your work is really well done and you have a really steady hand, your planned approach is very smart and i am definitely getting one of those books. I have being soldering in the larger form for my whole career and part of my training included a little trick you might find useful. When you handle the solder it has a similar problem as finger grease on the PCB.
I get a piece of cloth, linen is perfect, wet it with isopropyl alcohol and run the solder gently through the folded cloth. You keep doing that till the black disappears. It make a difference, especially in surface mounted soldering. Perfect is for robots. Thanks for listening
Great tip-I’ll give that a go next time I have to solder something.
Thanks for watching!
Great tutorial. I was worried surface soldering would be really hard but this looks very approachable!
After some practice its very easy
All those sounds!!❤
Leo I found your channel from this video was looking for videos to help me with soldering, I wasn’t really paying attention to what you were actually making until you were done when you turned it on I almost screamed, I am a sound designer and music producer doing all sorts of genres from pop to ambient but what ties it all together in my style is a very high influence from idm glitch experimental music, that thing sounds amazing!, oh and btw the project I am doing right now is a portable modded out turntable for playing ,using djimg and scratching, so seems like your right up my alley… cheers!
Portable modded turntable sounds very cool! I hope you'll post it somewhere (like TH-cam) and let me know so I can see it!
Hi Leomakes - excellent video on soldering SMD.. can you share what type of solder you used and the temperature setting for the iron for that solder?
Huge fan! Amazing Channel!
thanks much for this. Going to have to wait for .3mm solder to be delivered, but at least I'm no longer freaked out by surface mount soldering...
great turorial... thanks.. What is the temperature in Celsius of the soldertool?
I do a similar process, but I add solder to one pad on all SMT parts before I begin to place anything. I find it speeds up the process a bit. Always add the solder to the pad opposite the hand you hold the tweezer so the tweezer does not get in the way when placing the part and reflowing the solder.
Great tips. How are the pc ‘s marked for tiny led’s
This looks so cool! How do you prevent excess solder from going onto the board and connecting two pads that you don't want connected?
Beautiful video. Thanks, I got a lot from this.
educational and devilishly satisfying
Great video
What temp setting you are using for such a thin tip?
Dear Leo , Thank you for nice presentation ...
Excellent teaching video, thank you very much !
:o)
Just his tone of voice and the way he speaks is like anti stress in itself
This was a great demo!
For being organized , thumbs up 👍🏻
Great video. I once made a very low frequency radio that had an antenna a bit over a meter in diameter of 300 turns of wire. I was able to listen to my TV, the outdoor utility pole and a lightning storm coming in,
Frank Reiser M.S.
Fascinating! It never occurred to me that you can use this device (when properly tuned) to listen to a lightning storm. I associate this device with sounds from man made electronics but it’s interesting that nature can generate interesting sounds for it as well. Thanks for sharing this.
@@LeoMakes I am fascinated by the electromagnetic spectrum and radiation. I liked my VLF receiver because it was so far down the electromagnetic spectrum. Incidently, I have a Geiger counter and radioactive rocks. I have collected the Americium 241 from smoke detectors. They release an alpha particle and then a gamma ray.
10:35 most of us are likely looking at the legs, but he's referring to the plastic top corner of chip is beveled [where the yellow line passes]. Its blurry there, but can see clearly when sets it down. I barely caught it myself. Can see it clear at 11:49
Excellent job
thanks,nice and clean and HQ.thanks a lot.
question: how much power/which temperature you use to surface soldering small parts?
Great Video! How come no Liquid Flux?
I would like to ask you, sir, if I clean the bored with acetone it will damage it?
Wonderful video, Leo. Thanks. I'm wondering about flux--thoughts? The tip about beveled pads to indicate pin 1 was terrific! This video will make all of us software guys finally holding a soldering iron much less dangerous 🙂
I get this question about flux a lot. I should probably make a video but the short version is that extra flux is not necessary when soldering a fresh PCB with a new part. That’s because virtually all electronics solders have a bit of flux in them. That tiny amount is enough to make a good connection. More flux doesn’t hurt but it’s not really necessary.
If you were doing re-work on a board, that’s a whole other story. Then I’d put down a good bit of flux while removing the part or cleaning up a pad so that I can put down a fresh part.
Hope this clarifies.
Nice video! what video camera did you use for recording? thanks
Funny, came here for advice on smd quad flat pack soldering. I own the Original Electroslüch from LOM. Great guy, great device!!! I use it for locating RF Interference but also so much more both creative and useful.
Funny, I built it for sound design purposes but ended up using it for RF troubleshooting since a lab spectrum analyser was hopefully out of reach for me. It totally did the job!
Anyway, thanks for watching!
Great tutorial 👽
Thank you for youre time , very instructive and interressant video .If i may ask on what site did you find youre sample book thanks
Thanks for the kind words, Dirk. I got my sample book years ago from Aliexpress but I see they're also available through other places (Amazon, Ebay, etc.) I think they're all pretty much the same in quality.
2:43 Absolutely!!! Things always go missing
A good tip after a long time of soldering:
For small SMD components, I find it best to use solder paste with a stencil (you can get a stencil very cheap and quickly produced at many locations). Then place the components in place, and use either a hot air gun (more difficult) or a heating plate (easiest option)
My soldering life and PCB assembly really changed after getting a heating plate. cut down the assembly time considerably.
Best video I’ve seen. What temp do you have the iron. I also see you don’t use flux. Any reason? Thanks
Great video! Thought it would be more complex, will definitely give it a try. Thanks!
Sir great information thanks.
Awesome job! I've heard it suggested to solder sockets for the IC instead of mounting them straight to the PCB. This way you can easily switch out fried components. I'm not sure if this would have much of an effect on the circuit itself as I haven't tried it yet.
Are there smd ic sockets as well?
Nice ... what temp do you set your iron for surface mount parts?
is there a BOM for this build? I’m looking at the schematic but I don't have the experience to know what components I need for it.
First time viewer… insta-subscribe. Thanks for sharing! You have given me the confidence to attempt surface mounting, something I had been avoiding.
Glad it helped! Thanks for watching!
You don't even need that much solder on the pads. But a nice video, Leo, with nice and clear close-up shots. What SMD part size would you recommend? 0603 is the smallest I've ever soldered, but 0805 is a little bit more comfortable, while I use 1206 only when 1/4W power dissipation is needed (1:1 replacement of THT resistors).
What's your opinion on that, what size do you prefer?
Thank you for the excellent video. Great production quality. Great getting started content. I guess not many people are into SMT or this would have way more likes and comments.
Thanks for the kind words! I'm hoping the video has been helpful to whoever has seen it. Plus it was fun to make.
Also, what temperature do you set the soldering iron to?
Paranormal instigators would love something similar. Maybe try to hook up with them.
What is the correct temperature of the soldering iron in centigrade for this type of job and also for hot air temperature to remove this chip?
What temperature are you soldering at? What do you recommend for Mobile PCB soldering?
Great work
Hey wait, I am Norwegian and i don't like to watch knitting, I really enjoyed this. Great tutorial.
Beautiful soldering. I loved the way the solder flowed on the pad while the iron was at the other end of the pad and not in contact. What soldering iron were you using? I would like to buy one. Thank you
WOW!
VERY impressive, clear and well done tutorial!
Probably the best tutorial video that that I’ve ever watched.
So nicely done!
Thank You!!!
