How can I avoid loose connection between component and PCB?

It is a nice looking breadboard, but the terminals are too loose to make a good connection on any components. so I couldn't actually use them for anything.

If your order has not been placed, I remind you to tell your supplier the pin diameters of the component that will be on this board.

However, your order is finished. But there is still a solution.

  • Use the components with an advisable pin diameter.
  • Then, keep other components with too thick pin diameters in stock, for the next order.
  • Don’t forget to tell the pin size to your supplier next time.

What are the black spots in lead-free solder joints on PCB?

I am prototyping a PCB, using Chip Quik’s “SMDSWLF.031, a Sn96.5/ Ag3.0/ Cu0.5 solder with 2.2% no-clean flux. I find that the black spots appears frequently in larger pads on my board. I wonder if it is because I left the soldering iron more time heating the solder and that burnt the flux. What is that black residue? Is that a sign of a bad joint or maybe bad soldering technique?
