Hello, Never soldered before, Complete ameture, but I'm going to attempt to replace a Plc-44 Chip on an old board soon, When soldering the chip back onto the board, did you somehow apply solder to the prongs of the chip? or did you just place the chip and use the heat laser thing to solder it back, also what is that heat laser? a heat gun?
@BansheeFnd good luck if youve never soldered before haha. might want to use the "cold heat" soldering iron... good for noobs. wouldnt reccomend it to anyone else though
the only thing i can argue about this vid is using your finger to clean up the mess, don't giving a damn about ESD, but maybe he's wearing an anti ESD shock bracklet.
This just shows how futile the epoxy found on most blu-ray player motherboards is. The idea is to protect the unencrypted data stream, but it's apparent that the epoxy is easy to remove. When will they learn...?
@yamaha4759 Well you see, the chips are designed to handle temperatures exceeding 240 F, and here you're only heating to 120 max. However, exceed that 240, and say goodbye chip.
@shtewps You obviously didn't read what I said. The melting point of the chip, not the resin. (9/5)*Tc+32 Have an equation on conversion. The point of the comment was to be careful and don't damage the chip. Geez.
Ohh thanks for the tip about a heatgun for epoxy. Not working on the same circuit board as you here but that epoxy glob shit is so annoying, tried it and this worked great paired with an exacto-knife. :D
dude don't freakin do that u'l destroi the board first u'l cut one of the traks with that scalper and second use ESD gloves those are integrated circuits sensitive to electrostatical discharges ......oh my gash
Excellent, I thought although method 2 was the most impressive, method 1 was the most ingenious. Excellent. Still wondering about when you were reapplying the solder, how you didn't end up with bridged tracks.
wow, I thought that this epoxy would be made to be harder to remove. Since they usually apply it to protect the circuit from being copied or modified.
Dimethoxyethane will allso desolve and remove epoxy resin with little effort, Though the stuff is toxic and i have no clue what it would do to the green coat of the PCB.
look, this was an xbox360 on the video. I did not made it, but since it shows very well how to remove the epoxy resin, once I found it again, I out it up here. As for the xbox, the method in the video is not necessary at all now, thanx to the guys who made iXtreme (1.5 latest) firmware available. All you need is some screwdrivers, and a pc with sata ports, the rest is child's play, even a "dummy" can do it - that's why the lots of ads, try google for "ixtreme1.5" you'll see...
that's why you have to be really careful... all those resistors, etc. can easily melt if they are close. if that's your first, you should try it on some other pcb board which can be discarded after.

Wrong. You heat this up to 120C. Electronic temps are always measured in C. 120C is hotter than 240F.

You'll find it much easier to resolder the chip if you clean the pads using isopropranol and apply some flux first.

Ryuuken24 1 year ago
cool video but i think the tool you are useing is too sharp to be useing like that..
there is a big chance you damaged some of the traces on the board, not to mention the leads on the chips.
but.. i must ask.. what kinda tool did you use to heat all the component leads at the same time?

pengekcs 3 years ago
ok thanks a lot for your reply. Other question:
When you warm up the epoxy resin, the other things on the board will melt or break down?...
maerve33 3 years ago
that's why you have to be really careful... all those resistors, etc. can easily melt if they are close. if that's your first, you should try it on some other pcb board which can be discarded after.
