in all of my classes i have learned to use ic sockets, and the industrial
ways of soldering smt devices. i am working on a project that i do not want
the ic to wiggle out of the socket, i am not worried about having to swap
out the ic so i wish to solder it directly to the board. what ways do you
recomend to solder ics and smts to a pcb within a hobiest budget, without
overheating them?
