Hi,

30 years of experience in assembly = and rework of electronic PCB's and devices. Use a preheater to heat the= board
up prior to trying to solder the component(s) onto the boa= rd. Heat it up to at least =C2=A0110 C and not more than 130 C.
I= f the board has a large ground plane, it may take 15 or 20 minutes to prehe= at the board to a workable temperature.

A good pre= heater changes everything in assembly and rework...

Regards
