Enter the intricate world of surface mount components and learn to solder on a smaller scale. Once equipped with the right tools and a bit of patience, you'll be soldering minuscule parts like a machine.

Getting set up to film this has to be a huge pain in the ass. The shots look great though - whatever camera & rig is being used to film him doing the actual soldering (while not getting in his way I hope) must be cool.
I agree on this video about 'anchoring the first pin' - but drowning the pins with solder and suck it off afterwards is not really how I handle these SMD / TSSOP devices;
- Just add a little bit of flux to the PCB traces for the device you want to solder.
- Carefully place your device on the fluxed traces.
- yes, anchor the first pin like in this video but keep in mind the technique below:
- Put a small ball of solder on your (preferred chisel-tip) welder and just place it on the outer area of the PCB trace. The solder will follow the trace to the pin and the all ever beautiful cohesive power will suck the solder underneath the pins of the device, making an instant clean solder, no bridges; clean.
Just a dot of solder on your welding tip will probably allow you to nicely connect about three pins of the device.
It's a much more economic way to use your solder too!
To watch this video... FIRST set the playback speed to 1.5x. This fixes the slooooow speech and while the music sounds only a little better at fast speed it goes by much faster!
No no no, don't solder like this! Use flux and don't go over all the solders with that solder wick it will damage the pads, pcb and the risk of shorts are really high.
