− | Before working with any of the equipment in the PCB Lab you will need to take the [https://foxtale.georgefox.edu/moodle/course/view.php?id=31320 general lab quiz] as well as the specific quiz for each machine you are trying to use. The enrollment code for all of the quizzes is MakerHub. | + | ==General PCB Lab Knowledge== |
| + | Making/repairing circuits can be rewarding and fun as well as time consuming. One of the most used machines in the PCB Lab soldering iron. |
| + | |
| + | In the PCB Lab, circuits are built and repaired using a variety of prototyping equipment. |
| + | |
| + | The equipment in the PCB Lab has its own special purpose and benefits. The pick n place allows you to quickly place surface mount components. Voltera printers use conductive ink to print out the traces for producing a circuit board. The curing oven quickly heats the paste on a circuit board and bonds the surface mount components to the circuit pads. |
| + | |
| + | These are a few steps that will help you be successful in the PCB Lab. |
| + | * Always double check your circuit designs prior to attempting to print. If you can have a second set of eyes look for any issues that is always a good idea. |
| + | * Make sure the components you are using can handle the current required. |
| + | * Ask someone knowledgeable if you have questions. |
| + | * Double check the installation direction of your components prior to installation. |
| + | Here are a couple things to keep in mind: |
| + | * Most of the solder in the PCB lab contains lead. Wash your hands after soldering. |
| + | * Use the fume extractors when soldering to prevent inhaling fumes. |
| + | * Be aware of what your fingers are touching when soldering or working with hot equipment. |
| + | * Be aware of people and what they are doing around you. Keep track of where your soldering iron is pointing and touching. |
| + | * Be aware of what is on the floor around you. Don't trip on any cords or other students stuff. |
| + | * Wear safety glasses when soldering or working with the drilling head on the Voltera. |
| + | * If something feels like it could be dangerous ask a supervisor before attempting. |
