How Can I Connect A Resistor To A Pcb Without Using A Soldering Iron?


It’s far to small to solder accurately (it’s much smaller than a normal resistor) and the intense heat would damage the board. What are my options? Please include links to where I can buy the necessary supplies.

    I don’t have a link but, I would make a pressure fit socket with extended wires and solder them. Like a fuse holder. Possibly out of gold coated pins from an old motherboard.

    that is a surface mount type. I have done them with a cheap soldering gun. But you gotta have great eyes and a bit of practice.
    I did read somewhere that you can buy a rear defogger repair type of glue/solder that works. But i have no idea if i would count on it as i only read about it.
    Its diffently trick to solder but it can be done.

    Hey guy, The Answer To Your Problem Is Simple. Go To MCM Electronics, Use Google And Find Their Website.
    Anyways, Go To The Chemicals Section And Look For A Type Of Liquid Solder. It Comes In A Pen Style Applicator. Take A Razor Blade And Just Barely Skin Back The Protective Coating On The PC Board, Careful Not To Overlap Any Circuits, Apply The Liquid Solder, Then Place Your Resistor , Let Dry & Apply The Other Applcator Which Reseals The Boards Protective Coating Again. The Coating Pen Can Be Found At MCM As Well. Any Questions, Contact Me @ xofc72@netscape.net.
