SFP-CH50 - 5mm chisel. Used for power connector and
heatsink tabs.
SFP-CH25 - 2.5mm chisel. Standard tip for through-hole (I also have a
2mm chisel, the SFP-CH20, which I use for 0805 and 0603 SMDs)
SFP-DRH35 - 3.5mm drag-hoof / half-round (what PACE call a MiniWave
tip). Used for soldering SMD ICs, especially QFPs using "drag soldering"
techniques.
I also have the 0.4mm Conical (CN04) and Long Reach Conical (CNL04)
Thanks for the
hints. I went with SFP-CH25, SFP-CH10 and SFP-CN04.
The two chisels are similar to the tips that I already use with my ERSA.
As you wrote: Soldering a QFP pin by pin with a SFP-CN04 is
impractical. But if you have to solder a wire to a single QFP pin or
similar...
I thought about a SFP-DRH35 and a long reach conical. The long reach
can be nice when soldering smal connectors like 8 pin MiniDIN... Maybe
I'll get those later.
