| We notice that DI water seems to tarnish or discolor the metal packaging on crystals and DIN connectors. Our marketing types like the shiney metal surfaces. We don't want to hand solder these parts after washing. | Any suggestions? | Dave F Dave,

Recently started running flex board with tin lead connectors. The problem being that when we receive the parts incoming connectors are all bright and shiny. Now after going thru the heller we encountered cold solder. At this time peak temp was at 186

I have done experiments on small runs, with a few connectors and have had favorable results, I had apertures (oversized)made for the thru-hole connectors on our SMT stencil and hand inserted the connectors.. A few insufficient solders here and there

I faced problem over connecter's pin that were hot air soldered. This connector has 168 pins ( similar to the straddle connector ). The process is to apply the flux onto the connector's J-leads, and the hot air pencil were then ran thru' the leads to

Hi Chen, Based on your posted message, the following ideas are for your consideration: "brown residue" The water soluble solder paste you are using could be a water soluble rosin solder paste formulation. Perhaps the solder paste may not be proper

If you know you have cleaned any flux residues that were under there you could consider a bead of an electronic grade RTV, such as RTV3145. If you trap any uncleaned residues under there you could have long term reliability problems. But, like Dave

Hi, ok, I have a bit more info after playing further with the profiling. We are getting close, but we don't have enough top side heat I think. The IR lamps just don't give enough, but we can get better connector that should help. But we have anoth

Hi, Does anyone know where to purchase the connectors? Specifically bulkhead connectors or PCB mount connectors. I am thinking about doing a general purpose SMEMA box that has a Basic Stamp in the core, and some buttons so I can use it for general
