Hi JS!

The IPC has a standard in which to do this. It's under the IPC-TM-650, Method
2.4.37.2. It provides a means to measure and evaluate soldering tool
performance by using a standard technique and using a defined copper clad
coupon. One of the criteria is heat recovery...

<< Hi TechNetters,
 I want to evaluate some soldering systems and need to compare the heat
 recovery of the iron tips. I have no experience in this. Do you guys know
 of a standard method and equipment of measuring the temperature vs time of
 the solder iron tip during rework? Thanks.

 Rgds,
 JS >>
