Thread: whoa whoa whoa very different than what im use to!?!?

    Default whoa whoa whoa very different than what im use to!?!?

    Here is the rebel deep red tcss offers, I bought this from the store. I put the lens holder on the LED so i will assume A+ is the led positive and the C- is the LED negative correct? thank you.



    thank you.

    Yes, but use the larger pads or else the lens holder won't fit.

    That looks like it will be very hard to solder to...

    A=Anode (+)
    C=Cathode (-)

    And heat up your soldering iron as high as it goes, to make the solder stick to those pads.

    Yeah, it is the saber star mcpcb. Don't try to solder it using lead free solder and definitely don't try to do it on the heatsink. The solder will never flow and stick on the pads. Some people recommend heating them in a pan or the oven (read the datasheets for max temps) and then soldering. Don't over do it with the temp on the iron. Those pads have max ratings!
