Pin Configuration

  • Soldron 938 Temperature Controlled Digital Soldering Station Pinout Documentation
  • The Soldron 938 Temperature Controlled Digital Soldering Station is a versatile and precise soldering solution for various electronic applications. This documentation provides a comprehensive guide to the pinout of the soldering station, explaining the functionality of each pin and how to connect them.
  • Pinout Structure:
  • The Soldron 938 has a 10-pin connector, divided into two rows of 5 pins each. The pinout structure is as follows:
  • Row 1:
  • 1. VCC (Pin 1)
  • Function: Power supply input (typically 24V DC)
  • Description: This pin provides power to the soldering station. Ensure a stable 24V DC power source is connected to this pin.
  • 2. GND (Pin 2)
  • Function: Ground connection
  • Description: This pin serves as the reference ground for the soldering station. Connect it to the negative terminal of the power supply or a common ground point.
  • 3. TX (Pin 3)
  • Function: UART Transmitter
  • Description: This pin transmits serial data from the soldering station to an external device, such as a computer or microcontroller, for monitoring and configuration purposes.
  • 4. RX (Pin 4)
  • Function: UART Receiver
  • Description: This pin receives serial data from an external device, allowing for remote control and monitoring of the soldering station.
  • 5. SW (Pin 5)
  • Function: Soldering iron switch input
  • Description: This pin connects to a push-button or switch that controls the soldering iron. When the switch is closed, the iron is enabled.
  • Row 2:
  • 1. THERM (Pin 6)
  • Function: Thermocouple input
  • Description: This pin connects to a thermocouple (Type K or J) that measures the temperature of the soldering iron tip.
  • 2. HEATER (Pin 7)
  • Function: Heating element control output
  • Description: This pin controls the heating element in the soldering iron. The soldering station's microcontroller regulates the heating element's power based on the set temperature and thermocouple feedback.
  • 3. FAN (Pin 8)
  • Function: Cooling fan control output
  • Description: This pin controls the cooling fan in the soldering station. The fan is enabled when the temperature exceeds a set point or when the soldering iron is in use.
  • 4. STATUS LED (Pin 9)
  • Function: Status indicator output
  • Description: This pin connects to an LED that indicates the soldering station's status (e.g., power-on, temperature reached, or error conditions).
  • 5. RESET (Pin 10)
  • Function: Reset input
  • Description: This pin connects to a push-button or switch that resets the soldering station's microcontroller.
  • Connection Guidelines:
  • When connecting the pins, ensure the following:
  • Use a suitable connector or cable that matches the pinout structure.
  • Verify the power supply voltage and current rating are compatible with the soldering station's requirements.
  • Connect the thermocouple to Pin 6, ensuring proper wiring and polarity.
  • Connect the heating element and cooling fan to Pins 7 and 8, respectively, following the manufacturer's instructions.
  • Connect the status LED to Pin 9, using a suitable resistor and voltage rating.
  • Connect the reset switch to Pin 10, if desired.
  • Use proper wiring and insulation to prevent electrical noise, interference, and safety hazards.
  • By following this pinout documentation and connection guidelines, you can safely and effectively integrate the Soldron 938 Temperature Controlled Digital Soldering Station into your electronic projects and applications.

fopen(s);
% Define the temperature profile
temperature_profile = [200, 250, 300, 350, 400];
% Send the temperature profile to the Soldron 938
for i = 1:length(temperature_profile)
    fprintf(s, 'T%d
', temperature_profile(i));
    pause(1);  % Wait for 1 second
end
% Close the serial connection
fclose(s);
```

const SerialPort = require('serialport');
// Open the serial connection to the Soldron 938
const port = new SerialPort('COM3', { baudRate: 9600 });  // Replace COM3 with your device's serial port
// Set up the event listener for incoming data
port.on('data', (data) => {
  const temperature = data.toString().trim();
  console.log(`Current temperature: ${temperature}C`);
});
// Send the command to read the current temperature
port.write('T?
');
