CP Repair Tools and Equipment

Preparing the proper tools for
Repairing
 Thereare many different variety and
Cellphone Repair Tools.
A lot companies offers online purchasing

for such certain tools for beginning into
business.
 Youcan choose which is which for such

certain product.
 1. Multi-Tester ( Analog/Digital)- Used to measure Voltages,
Currents and Resistance in electronic components.
2. Screwdrivers - Used to loosen the phones screws.
3. Tweezers - used to hold and pick small cellphone
component parts.
4. Soldering iron - used to solder / resolder electronic
parts.
5. Soldering lead - used to bonds Electronic components.
 6. Soldering Flux and Paste - Used to tightened soldering quality.
7. BGA Rework station - Applied Heat to remove and replaced parts
and IC chips.
8. Re balling Kits - Tools for re balling IC bumps, this composed of
Stencil plates, Ball Leads and Spatula
9. DC Regulated Power Supply- Used to substitute battery voltage when
working on hardaware troubleshooting.
10. Flashing and Unlocking Device- it is Software Tools that used to
unlock and flash mobile phones
programmable circuits.
11. Cables and Wires - Used as an Interface from PC to cellphones when
working on like flashing, unlocking and jailbreaking
 Properopening tools is used to avoid damaged
and insure safety in handling mobile phones,
which prior to avoid risk of scratches and
breakage.
 Tweezers are tools used for picking up small
objects that are not easily handled with the
human hands and very useful in surface
mounted electronics components.
 Various Mobile phone uses variety of screws mounted to
every products.
 Torx and Precision comes with different code and number.

T6 is the most commonly used in mobile phones.
A soldering iron is a tool normally used
for applying heat to two or more
adjoining metal parts such that solder
may melt and flow between those parts,
binding them securely, conductively and
hermetically.
 Solder paste (or solder cream) is used for
connecting the terminations of integrated chip
packages with land patterns on the printed circuit
board.
 The paste is applied to the lands by printing the
solder using a stencil, while other methods like
screening and dispensing are also used.
 A majority of defects in mount assemblies are caused
due to the issues in printing process or due to
defects in the solder paste.
 An electronics manufacturer needs to have a good
idea about the printing process, specifically the
paste characteristics, to avoid reworking costs on the
assemblies.
 Soldering flux is just a safe, convenient
acid for dissolving the oxide skin off the
metal you want your solder to wet well.
 Also dissolves oxide off the liquid solder,
making it less crusty and therefore more
shiny.
A solder wick (also desoldering wick or
desoldering braid) is a tool for removing
solder from any solder joint. Usually, it is
a roll of fine, braided 18 to 42 AWG wire,
typically oxygen free copper, which has
been treated with a rosin solder flux.
 SMD(Surface Mounted) Rework station
is used to remove, replace, do re-balling
BGA (Ball Grid Alley) chips and SMD
components.
 Thermostat adjustment is applied by
controlling the heat temperature and the
amount of air to flow.
 The Dc power Supply can be used to
substitute for the Battery Voltage when do
live voltage checking on the PCB circuits.
 This is being used to trace the power
supply line in electronic circuit.
 isa equipment with high stability, high
reliability, low noise, its output voltage or
current can be continuously adjusted,
and its constant voltage and current can
auto-conversion. This universal power
supply can be used in many different
areas, from test of R&D equipment to test
of production lines.

 Cleaning kits and tools is
also necessary when repairing specially
when working wet units, corroded or
rusted PCP boards.
 Some cleaning tools may found at
household or home products and not so
hard to find and prepare it. here's; some
cleaning tools that may you find at home.
 can
help eliminate and wipe dust on PCB
Components.
 Make sure that the brushes you may use

have low electrostatic ability.
A cotton cloth or sponge and cotton
buds which help to wipe extra solvents,
dust,rust and dirt.
 Anti Static Spray or liquids used to
eliminate water residues and corrosive
element in PCB component.
A lacquer thinner is a substitute to anti
static cleaner and commonly and widely
used by many technician's.
 An Ultrasonic Cleaner- A machine that
cleans by using a fluid that is vibrated at
20,000 cycles per second. When the
vibration speed rises above the
ultrasonic frequency level, bubbles
explode and generate strong power,
cleaning the surfaces and cavities of
hard-to-clean objects.
 Re-balling kits are used to repair broken or weak
soldered BGA (Ball Grid Array) Chips.
 This is very important tools when it comes to
hardware problem troubleshooting in various mobile
phones.
This is only being used when an IC or chips was
being suspected having fault or causes the problem.
That is because Mobile phones used BGA (ball grid
array) solder balls that holds as connection terminal
of every chips.
 The process is that they just remove the
entire solder balls and flattened out the
entire bump terminal then replace the chips
again.
 It may work but not totally effective as like
for my years experience for the soldering
process is too weak and easy to break ,
because the amount of soldered balls that
holds the chips is not strong enough to hold
it.
 Solder balls have different sizes and
measured by diameter, that match on every
chips bumps sizes also.
 These are the common Soldering Ball

diameter ranges for mobile phones chips.
0.05, 0.10, 0.15, 0.20, 0.25mm, 0.30mm,

0.35mm, 0.40mm,0.45mm,0.50mm ,0.55mm
,0.60mm, 0.65mm, 0.76mm `
 This
is being used to properly align the
solder ball on every bumps of the chips.
 everychips have different bumps pattern
and alignment designs.
 Spatula
this is used to gathered the solder ball
on each holes of the Stencil plates.
A liquid Flux
A PCB Board Holder
 a PCB holder is being used to maintain
the accuracy while working soldering
and to avoid gripping and misalignment
of solder balls.
 Additional working table equipments
such PC or laptop, table lamp or a
magnifying lamp, are very useful and
important for cellphone repair.
 A Personal Computer may help for storing
support guides and manuals, A PC is also the key
tool when it comes working on software like
flashing and unlocking mobile phones.
 It is also being used to apply any applications
such as Themes, Games, Mp3 music and ring-
tones and any other application and add-ons to
the cellphones by using a USB cable wire or
blue-tooth device attach to it.
 A large Memory storage or Hard disk is also
required for storing many softwares and
programs just only for mobile phones.
a table lamp is also require on a working
table, it adds visibility when fixing things
on a table like cellphone because
cellphone parts are too small enough to
handle.
A magnifying lamp is much better for
repairing tiny parts on a cellphone
specially when it comes working on
soldering a component and to avoid risk
of damaging to other parts
A microscope is used by many experts in
finding problems such as cracks,
breakage and damaged PCB's (printed
circuit board) which is invisible to
human eyesight.
