  2. Soldering - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soldering

    Soldering. Desoldering a contact from a wire. Soldering (US: / ˈsɒdərɪŋ /; UK: / ˈsoʊldərɪŋ /) is a process of joining two metal surfaces together using a filler metal called solder. The soldering process involves heating the surfaces to be joined and melting the solder, which is then allowed to cool and solidify, creating a strong ...

  3. Twist-on wire connector - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Twist-on_wire_connector

    Twist-on wire connectors. Twist-on wire connectors are a type of electrical connector used to fasten two or more low-voltage (or extra-low-voltage) electrical conductors. They are widely used in North America and several European countries in residential, commercial and industrial building power wiring, but have been banned in some other ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrical_connector

    Bullet terminals, male and female (right-center, with blue wires) A blade connector is a type of single wire, plug-and-socket connection device using a flat conductive blade (plug) that is inserted into a receptacle. Wires are typically attached to male or female blade connector terminals by either crimping or soldering. Insulated and ...

    e. Electrical wiring in North America follows the regulations and standards applicable at the installation location. It is also designed to provide proper function, and is also influenced by history and traditions of the location installation. The US National Electrical Code is applicable to many areas in the US where state, county or local ...

    Ribbon cable. Left: 20-way grey ribbon cable with wire for pin 1 marked red, insulation partly stripped. Right: 16-way rainbow ribbon with IDC connector. A ribbon cable is a cable with many conducting wires running parallel to each other on the same flat plane. As a result, the cable is wide and flat. Its name comes from its resemblance to a ...

  7. Crimp (joining) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crimp_(joining)

    The benefits of crimping over soldering and wire wrapping include: A well-engineered and well-executed crimp is designed to be gas-tight, which prevents oxygen and moisture from reaching the metals (which are often different metals) and causing corrosion; Because no alloy is used (as in solder) the joint is mechanically stronger [6]

  8. Flip chip - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flip_chip

    Flip chip, also known as controlled collapse chip connection or its abbreviation, C4, [1] is a method for interconnecting dies such as semiconductor devices, IC chips, integrated passive devices and microelectromechanical systems (MEMS), to external circuitry with solder bumps that have been deposited onto the chip pads.

  9. Shielded cable - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shielded_cable

    The best way to wire shielded cables for screening is to ground the shield at both ends of the cable. [6] Traditionally there existed a rule of thumb to ground only the source end of the shield to avoid ground loops. Best practice is to ground at both ends, but there is a possibility of ground loops.
