D.E.V.I.C.E. is an encyclopedia of terms used by manufacturers of test and measurement equipment. T&M Atlantic created this service to better explain the functionality of instruments it offers, and to highlight the latest developments in the world of measurement equipment. We are using such tools as animation to bring words and pictures to life and to create not just an understanding but also an appreciation for technology that goes into the design of every instrument.

If you are searching for a particular term or definition, please contact us and our engineers will be glad to explain it to you.
A soldering iron is used to heat the connections to be soldered.
For electronic circuits, you should use a 25- to 40-watt (W) soldering iron.
Higher wattage soldering irons are not necessarily hotter; they are just able to heat larger components. A 40-W soldering iron makes joints faster than a 25-W soldering iron does.
