The small size of the SMD (Surface Mount Device) component and the confined workspace of the PCB (Printed Circuit Board) are the challenging parts of SMD soldering. The best approach is to obtain the proper equipment and to plan out the process, before you actually begin. Working with an LED (Light Emitting Diode) is no different than working with any other SMD component, except that the LED is directional. Proper installation of the LED depends upon soldering the correct end of the component to the correct pad (point of attachment) on the PCB. Tips Warnings Writer Bio
