How Heat Sink Compound Keeps Electronics Cool
What is heat sink compound? Heat sink compound is a sticky paste that is used as an interface between CPU heat sinks and heat sources. What is the purpose of heat sink compounds? Heat sink compound is used to bridge any spaces between the CPU (central processing unit) or other heat-producing elements and the physical heat sink. This heat sink, constructed from conductive metal, is passively positioned above the CPU. Heat is transferred from the CPU to the heat sink, which then disperses it through its fins, allowing a fan... Read more...
How to select the right shape and size of the tip for micro soldering
Why are there so many different tip shapes and sizes available for soldering? How do you know which to choose for your soldering project? And does it even matter which is chosen?  These are common questions that people face when they first begin their soldering journey. Many Hakko Soldering Stations and Irons come with a wide variety of tip shapes, and within each shape, there are different sizes.

Moisture VS Electronics
The growing use of electronics in industrial, defense systems, medical devices and consumer electronics have heightened the challenge for manufacturers to guarantee the reliability of their products. One major obstacle to electronics reliability is the intrusion of moisture, a persistent threat particularly prevalent in highly humid environments. The entry of water into electronic systems results in the following consequences: Elevated dielectric constant Initiation of ionic corrosion Growth of tin whiskers This causes the electronics to degrade, which leads to intermittent faults followed by a total failure.  Many electronic products are now...
