soldadura de componentes electrónicos
Solder Wicking (also know as Solder Drainage) occurs when the solder flows away from the pad on a PCB, accumulates on the surface of the board and enters nearby via holes and tracks.
Usually, the component terminal has a lower melting point than the pad to which it is being soldered. As a result, the component terminal reaches its melting point before the pad and the solder flows away from the pad and accumulates in unwanted places.
See the image below, Solder is placed on the pads on to which a component is placed. Once the component is soldered on to the pad, the solder melts and flows towards the via hole and associated area.

Mecha/drenaje de soldadura
La mecha / drenaje de soldadura se produce cuando la soldadura fluye fuera de la almohadilla de una placa de circuito impreso, se acumula en la superficie de la placa y luego penetra en los orificios y pistas cercanos. 'Wicking' es la recogida y retirada de fluidos indeseables;
