What are the reasons why the double-sided PCB board pad is not tinned? There are several cases in which the PCB board is not tinned. 1. The PCB circuit board is oxidized, and the PCB board is not tinned. 2. The temperature of the furnace is too low, or the speed is too fast, and the tin does not melt. 3. Solder paste problem, you can replace another solder paste try. 4. Battery problem, this is the most common problem, because the battery is generally stainless s…

Vendors If you are editing this page, remember that this is a directory of companies that primarily sell new parts, while the surplus page is intended for shops that sell used or salvaged parts and equipment. There is necessarily some overlap between the two. If you think a retailer sells both types of items, then it's ok to add it to both lists.
