Greetings. Does anyone know of a good reference on the proper physical handling of surface mount devices? We have a number of very small builds, so our stockroom is very often issuing single piece quantities. The parts are protected from ESD, but

You are going to struggle with that sort of connector - the only pin headers that seem to have widespread sucess are the dual inline ones with bent over j leads that sit on the board. They come with a plastic hat that allows vacuum pick up. However
