. Because of this, the gold has to be completely removed so that the solder makes the electromechanical and/or metallurgical bond to the subsurface beneath the gold, which in most cases is Nickel

)? Connectors and surface mount oscillators are only available in Gold over Nickel terminations and are difficult to tin and re-package. Answer: The reasoning for the change was due to the failures happening in the field with these types of components
