I'm planning on some PCB for a small project, I have a 6-pin LGA component with pads on the edges.
I was condiering how to easily solder with a solder station (without hot air, oven, hot plate etc.)
I might have seen something a few years ago (not sure), making via's in the pads and solder and forcing solder through the via's for it to stuck. (can pre-tinn the pads). But can't find anything in forums and youtube now.
Anyone tried this or think it might work? (This is for a demo, planing 6pcs so far, not for mass production)
The only other option I can think about is to make the pads on the PCB stick out (extra long) and you can solder from the outside and hope it will reflow (maybe pre-tinn the pads).
