Hi, We have a new product coming soon that has a fair number of PTH sockets and headers. I was thinking that it would be good to use intrusive reflow on some of them to even up cycle times between SMT and hand insertion, however, when i called t

I agree Craig and I'm also not convinced DEK is really doing that well. I know they sell a ton of printers into Asia at around a 30%-40% discount to what they sell them anywhere else. A classic case of grabbing market share at the expense of profitab

I can post that info when we get it from our design team. All we have right now is a drawing and a BOM calling out "mini fuse" of 5 different values. The clip/socket is not called out at all, but going by the shape on the asembly drawing & mask lay

We are making a socketed version of the boards, but it forces some compromises that will degrade performance. In talking to people (although admittedly most are rework vendors) the consensus is that with this small a part you pretty much need visio

Ok Guys I need help in justification of Converting TH boards to SMT. We do quite a bit of I/O controllers using sockets and chips, and our biggest defect issues are bad chips. I am preaching to convert these boards over to SMT, however my designers

My circuit board contains 11 x 11 matrix 1mm pitch BGA, The device was tested in socket on evaluation Board. We handed over the actual PCB & devices for re-flow. The assembly house first re-flowed all the SMT components other than BGA. BGA was placed

We have a Vansco system on our 2005 Alpine Coach motor home. We have an intermittent outage problem with the 12V lighter socket. I can plug something in, like the tire sensor monitor, or the GPS, and after I remove it, the outlet no longer works, n

Surely this depends on the scenario? Quite a few manufacturers feeders use spring contacts http://www.harwin.com/product-search/P20-0/ perhaps a bit like these, so your PCB would simply have pads to align with those contacts. Of course this relies o

Hi there! If they are just standard headers there's a company called Teka that makes headers and socket headers with solder preforms in them. They call it "Solder Bearing Lead Technology" You can drop them in the board and reflow them just like SMT p
