Most Popular Types of Fluxes in Electronics
Most people are familiar with solder as that is the main ingredient and the visible result for creating reliable electrical connections and connecting components to a printed circuit board (PCB). But soldering requires clean surfaces without any oxidation and impurities. This is where soldering flux comes to save the day! Soldering flux is a chemical…

Can You Damage Electronics With A Multimeter?
Multimeters are used for a variety of tasks and can provide crucial information when you’re wiring something in or diagnosing a device. Most commonly, they’re used for measuring voltage, resistance and current, but some multimeters have additional capabilities like diode forward voltage, continuity, capacitance, bipolar junction transistor (BJT) amplification and temperature measurements. In the hands…
