Hi.
Is there a command line way to detect missing symbols in schematics
files? I'd like to check all my schematics for consistency with my
current library. Open them all with the GUI for visual inspection
would be a tad tedious...

IMHO, it works better, if the tip features flat surfaces. The solder

I can't say enough about using flux for soldering.
I often use the no clean flux with a metal tip dispenser.
like mouser 577-SF-01
Although it seems that if you don't want to buy a gallon of liquid
flux your getting a pen, which I dislike over the dispenser. It is a
matter of taste.

Get yourself some good quality flux, it makes this sort of problem disappear.
I've used Electrolube SMFL (aerosol with dispenser tube) with good
results, but there are many good options. Look for something with

I think the only trick is to make sure your iron's tip is BIG enough

Works for more coarse pitch, too. Th
I've done 0.5mm pitch TQFP on home-fabbed PCBs with an iron. Heck,
I've done 0.4mm pitch too. It's easy if you know how. Here's how.
You'll need:
pen flux
solder wire
iron with normal-sized chisel or hoof tip (I use chisel)
Procedure:
Pen flux the pads on the PCB and the pins on the QFP (top

I'd say, pin cues fall into the same category.

If this results in an installable package that could be placed on a server,
this would be a great step ahead.

These are incredibly difficult to solder without solder mask, in my
experience. Whenever I've had a design that called for them,

Is this something that would be easy to port to? Anyone know much

I have just looked into the android OS just a little because I got a
