Yes, you need work with supplier to see if can run pin in paste for these connectors, even do some experiments. A step-up stencil would be good for these connectors, also connectors pin size and length match with PCB hole design.

Thanks for the comments so far. The smallest nozzle I've tried is a 4mm, which is what Pillarhouse used on this board to provide a sample. I tried this but wasn't as good as the 6mm. I've soldered the same connectors on a different board using a 10mm

We are performing testing for lead free connector finishes. We want to run solderability tests on a series of lead free connector plating options in a series lead free PCB's. I need some advice on the most popular lead free PCB finishes. I am aware

If the solder joint meeting 8.2.5.4, minimum side joint length(D) and also meeting 8.2.5.6, minimum heel fillet height (F) but the heel fillet NOT extend to the mid point of outside bend. It is acceptable?

On one hand, nothing in 8.2.5.4 that states that you need a heel fillet. It only talks to the length of the side fillet. On the other hand, we suggest that you should use 8.2.5.6 to determine if your heel fillet is acceptable, after you have determ

Lead Free in 5 zones is tough sledding. Start with your manufacturers solder reflow profile and calculate your belt speed by looking at the recommended heating time for the solder paste vs. the length of your heated zones. Set your belt speed so tha

Depending on the connector you should be able to use a standard cheap arbor press with some cheap home-made tooling. Standard arbor presses typically have a rotating disc with cut-outs, remove this and put a decent quality stainless steel block in it

That is the rub here, isn�t it? For those posting, it�s easier [but much slower] to start a new thread than to search the archives. [And posters could view their issue so unique and novel that it could never have been discussed several years earlie

Pad design - Standard IPC 20 pitch QFP Thermal pad design - Layout the thermal pad 0mm to 0.15mm larger per side (0mm to 0.30mm larger overall) than the exposed die pad on the package. �Larger than�, as opposed to the same size, is preferred. Obvio

When bridging becomes an issue, I like short leads. Lead Free is where I see most bridging occur. Usually when lead length starts to approach lead spacing. As long as the lead is discernible in the joint, it's acceptable. If you are having troubl
