Lesson Objectives To learn how to solder components onto a circuit board safely and correctly.

1. Lesson Objectives Tolearn how to solder components onto a circuit board safely and correctly. Success Criteria Must Be able to understand the health and safety rules associated with using a soldering iron. Should Be able to select the right resistor and place it correctly onto the board and safely solder it in place. Could Be able to solder all nine resistors in place on the PCB.

2. Soldering Health and Safety. 1. When you are not using the soldering iron put it in the holder provided. 2. Make sure you have a heat mat under the soldering iron and holder. 3. Make sure the room is well ventilated when soldering. 4. Only one person should be soldering at a time. 5. Do not touch the soldering iron to see if is on. 6. Remove your blazer before starting soldering. 7. Always wear an apron and goggles when you solder. 8. Wipe the iron on the damp sponge provided to clean it. 9. Always tin the soldering iron tip before you start soldering. 10. If you do burn yourself on the iron run the burn under running water for ten minutes.

4. Task : On a sheet of A4 plain paper draw a 10mm border add the title “Soldering Safety” and your NAME. Using words and pictures explain why each rule is important. 1. When you are not using the soldering iron put it in the holder provided. 2. Make sure you have a heat mat under the soldering iron and holder. 3.
