• A macro shot of several dull and grainy solder joints on a circuit board.

    Introduction Cold solder joints are also known as pseudo-soldering. They are a bad solder joint that is produced during PCBA or SMT. The solder joint is unreliable because it lacks good intermetallic compound (IMC) formation. This can cause serious line failures. [...]
