5 HOW TO REPLACE THE FLAT PACKAGE ICEven if you do not have the special tools (for example, a spot heater) to remove the Flat IC, with some solder (large amount),a soldering iron and a cutter knife, you can easily remove the ICs that have more than 100 pins.5.1. PREPARATION· SOLDERSparkle Solder 115A-1, 115B-1 OR Almit Solder KR-19, KR-19RMA· Soldering ironRecommended power consumption is between 30 W to 40 W.Temperature of Copper Rod 662 ± 50°F (350 ± 10°C)(An expert may handle a 60~80 W iron, but a beginner might damage the foil by overheating.)· FluxHI115 Specific gravity 0.863(Original flux should be replaced daily.)5.2. FLAT PACKAGE IC REMOVAL PROCEDURE1. Put plenty of solder on the IC pins so that the pins can be completely covered.Note:If the IC pins are not soldered enough, you may give pressure to the P.C. board when cutting the pins with a cutter.2. Make a few cuts into the joint (between the IC and its pins) first and then cut off the pins thoroughly.3. While the solder melts, remove it together with the IC pins.When you attach a new IC to the board, remove all solder left on the land with some tools like a soldering wire. If some solder isleft at the joint on the board, the new IC will not be attached properly.142KX-FPC91
