In the purest sense of ESD control, we would have to say yes, use ESD tape to cover the gold fingers. The gold fingers are connected directly to input/output controls for the card, and, as we all know, when handling boards, we're supposed to avoid c

| | I am having problems processing immersion gold boards. The achieved solder joints appear acceptable a la IPC-A-610, but the resultant joint does not fully cover the land, i.e. you can still see an outline of gold pad. | | What is the best way to

We currently are building a pcb that has gold fingers, about 36 in a concave V overall shape from .275 on the outside edge fingers tapering down to .197 in the middle of the 2 inch span that plugs into a shelf connector. These fingers are on both sid

Dave, Sorry to drag this out some more. When I saw this thread I realized that we often get PWB's fabricated with a gold plated edge connector tab. However we have not ever given any specs to the fabricator regarding the gold plating - all we say i

Sorry if I was not clear. We have a Flex Circuit Board that is ENIG Finished. There are two connectors that are SMTd to either side of the Flex to connect to other PCBs within the system. Then, we have conductive rubber contacts that are press fit on

Well, no fault with your calculations from here. They appear to be correct. [Logic doesn't appear to be off to far off base, either. An epiphany, eh?] As mentioned in an earlier posting on this thread, consider following the recommendations of IP

John, I have never seen black pad covering a majority of the board, that would be a scarry thought. I think he is talking about building modules (sims dims) and getting soldering spatering on the gold edge connectors. We went the rounds with that s

We build a product that requires a lithium battery. There is a Smt Battery clip soldered onto two gold pads on a FR4 PCB. The battery is forced by two little clips punched out to provided downward pressure in the battery holder, enabling the lithium
