[Paparazzi-devel] Re: Reflow Soldering the 12MHz Crystal

[Paul Cox]

Hi Jay,

I use a hot air tool (aka smd rework station- like http://www.tequipment.net/Hakko851-2.html) and it goes down pretty well. Pre-tin the pads with a *little* bit of solder and hold it in place while adding a little heat and it settles right down. Same goes for many of the other parts.

Good luck,

Paul

Hello,

When mounting the 12MHz crystal onto any of the tiny/booz/classix boards,
what method has everyone assembling these boards been using? I've noticed
that all of the boards use the same SMD reflow mounted crystal.

Regards,
Jay
