See how to remove a surface mount IC / SMT IC using 4 great different methods with and without the use of a hot air rework station.
These 4 different methods for how to remove surface mount ic's can be carried out using a variety of standard tools so there is a method for everyone as I appreciate not all viewers will have a hot air rework station.
2 and 4 sided IC removal can be easily achieved by following these short tutorials on all 4 methods with clear guidance and tips throughout.
Please note if your IC's have a HEATPAD underneath the body you will need option 1 , the hot air pencil method.Also if you are using the 2 soldering iron method PLEASE make sure the board is not powered up when performing this option.
All these IC removal methods are proved and trusted and with some care you will easily achieve your IC removal successfully without a problem.
Finally if you found this video of use please consider my other KZfaq soldering tutorials and be sure to not miss out on any future releases by subscribing and turning on the notification button.
Thank you for your time and good luck.

Very nice videos and nice explanation in your channel! Very useful videos for learning soldering skills. Just about the solder wick I would say is better not to drag it on the pads but just tap it instead. In some cases, it could ruin the pads.

I used to have a gizmo for old DIP chips that did this from the other side of the board. It looked like a rows of staples that attached to your iron. You'd flip the board and heat from the bottom and the chip would fall out the other side.

Methods 1 and 4 are the most reasonable, I think. They're the most similar to the recomendations in the IPC 7711/7721. There are actually solder tips designed for this kind of removal as well. I wouldn't suggest using a blade near the board or putting your board through the stress of method 3.

Another interesting method we were taught in the 90's was as follows:- 1: Run a fine gauge wire down the back of one side of the IC pack and the inner facet of its pins - similar to the way a shuttle cock runs inside threads in a weaving loom. 2: Solder the tip of the wire to the last pin on the run. 3: Take the free end of the wire and while heating the pins, gently tease the wire outward and upwards. 4: Repeat this "teasing" movement along the length of one side of the IC package until all pins on the one side are free of the pads. 5: Repeat this same process for the other side of the IC pack. 6: Clean and prepare PCB accordingly for the new device.

Thanks for the excellent tutorials. On another channel the guy removing a component said that using a hot air gun might damage the VIAs on the board if you're not careful and use too much heat. I suppose you make sure you keep circulating the hot air around until the solder melts(?)

Hi , thank you for your support , much appreciated. I love the 2 soldering iron method so much that I posted a complete video on KZfaq showing some of the instances when 2 irons makes work so much easier . I have all the hot air stations etc needed to do soldering rework but at times 2 irons is so much better than a hot air station . Surrounding components for example can shift if your not careful when using hot air also plastic connectors can melt . Why protect all these when you can quickly rework with 2 irons . My best tip to anyone who solders is to get 2 irons . There are certain times when it's a godsend . Thanks again , good luck with all your soldering projects in the future 👍

Just used a variation of your method 4 to remove a sop 8 ic. Blob of solder on both sides to connect the leads, use a large chisel tip iron, then alternate back and forth heating the solder on both sides until they melt and the ic slides off. I imagine it would have been easier with two irons, but only had one and didn't take hardly any time. I can't recommend a good flux paste though; without my solder was sticking everywhere it could. Cheers

You make it look so easy & good that you took your time so people new to this like me can follow easy enough. I’ve just bought a hot air station which has temp & air flow. Im interested in eeprom chips 8 legged. Does your method 1 apply for me ? You advise 360 temp but what about air flow ? My settings is 1-8

@mrsolderfix3996 2 жыл бұрын

Hi , thank you for your comment , much appreciated. You should be able to do the component you mention , no problem. My air ratings are different , mine go from 0 to 150 and to do this type of component I would normally have it on about 90 . So going by this figure you would probably need the air on about 4. Sometimes if your struggling to get parts off it's worth upping the air and not the temperature , this can really work well. Don't forget , if you have delicate plastic parts near by that could melt , protect them with silver foil adhesive tape ( I done on old KZfaq posting showing how good the silver tape works . Hope that helps and good luck 👍

You can place a thick copper wire bent in the rectangle shape around the chip and on the terminals ,now add some solder and apply soldering iron for heating,it will melt all the terminals together and you can lift the chip easily.

@mrsolderfix3996 2 жыл бұрын

Hi , thank you for your comment. A better way of doing this method is actually forming the shape of the IC with wire and directly attaching it to your solder tip . Less potential for the wire loop slipping as it's firmly attached to the tip . Then like the other method lay it on the IC add solder around joints and hopefully will lift off cleanly . For large 208 pin IC's I wouldn't do these 2 methods as will be really difficult to heat that amount of tiny pads at once , risking loose pads etc. Chip quik is another option that's pretty good . Thanks again 👍

Not sure if I'd use method No.3 as it looks like a lot of temperature stress for the pads and mechanical stress for the IC. I usually use method No.1 but I will try No.2 & 4 one day. Personal note: it's difficult for me to understand you and I have to use subtitles (I'm not an English native speaker) OTOH I have no problems understanding Adrian from Adrian's Digital Basement (USA) or Dave Jones from the EEVBlog (AUS). Would like to see a tutorial about soldering SOJ. It's always a PITA for me. Nevertheless: thumbs up!

Thanks a well presented video that works. Maybe I should ask if they will still work, I always believed heat like that would destroy an IC

@mrsolderfix3996 Жыл бұрын

Hi , thank you for your comment, much appreciated. I've taken hundreds of IC's off with the hot air + 2 iron methods . When I've had to reuse some of them they have always worked . They can take the heat . Hope that helps , thanks again 👍

I'm curious what temperature you run your soldering irons at? Always enjoy your videos and definitely learn something every time, thank you.

@mrsolderfix3996 7 ай бұрын

Hi , thank you for watching the video and commenting , much appreciated . Generally if I'm using leaded solder I use roughly 330 degrees Celsius and for lead free solder I up the temperature to about 360 - 375 degrees Celsius . I may vary these slightly if for example you have a large ground plain but usually these mentioned temperatures would suffice . Hope that helps , thanks again 👍
