Hi I am looking for some type of peelable mask or plug to cover the connector during the conformal coating. The problem we have is the moisture get into system and eventually penetrate under the connector creating short circuit to the board. What I r

We have a customer who is using a standard USB Type A Connector on their assemblies. They don't want to add a housing to the assembly, but want to shield the metal USB connector housing from potential shorting with surrounding electronics within thei

Yeah i don't know I have not seen the actual application. RTV was already discussed by the customer and they don't want it. That is what I was thinking too. It is poor design and they are trying to find a cheap way out that doesn't look cheap. Thanks

Hi, We need to solder a USB plug onto a PCB in our SMT machines, and this is the same type of plug you see on USB storage devices. It's a very flat connector with 4 SMT pins, however the hard part is the bottom of the connectors is the same level

Hi, I really don't understand your customers (or yours for that matter) problem with the shield - shorting? Please explain in more detail. Placing a tape seems to me to be the worst thing you can do, in terms of life-time. In what type of applicatio

1) I am not aware of anyone making a snap on plastic housing either. 2) How can components short the connector? Are they dead shorts (components touching). If so, means bad design! 3) Could try some RTV compounds instead of kapton tape. However u wil

Hi, Your right guys, and we turned off the chip wave, and most of the problem went away. It looks much better, and we are getting a slight bridging on a USB connector at the front edge of the PCB and a little adhesion, but not any where as much as w
