I don�t have the answer for you but it would not be difficult to make a fixture to find out. Combine a counter, pneumatic cylinder, and a solenoid in such a way to do the job for you. Cylinder pushes the card into the connector, when contact is made

Pete, I'm wondering how much optimisation you needed (or were allowed) to do with respect to connector design. The first one we evaluated had a row of leads that I can only describe as "crescent" shaped in cross section. Impossible to get even 50%

Thanks Dave. About your second comment, the issue is placing BGA connectors mirror image (male, and female), the connector sometimes shifts during placement before reflow. we are using a six mil stencil for both sides with minimum paste deposit. a

Hany: I have never understood why the add-on boards in PCs have gold plating on their connectors. In the military and in avionics, they require gold on connectors to protect from wear and corrosion. But PCs ave very different. PCs: * Are obsolet

Hello, We have just received a contract to assemble some PCI daughter cards with the AMP Zpak style connectors. I am comfortable pressing connectors into backplanes, even double sided SMT, but would like any advice on designing a fixture to support

Hello; I am looking for general info on backplane assemblies. Any info would be appreciated, but some of the questions that come to mind include: -What part types other than connectors do backplane cards have on them? SMT? Leaded? Quantity? Is
