We are performing testing for lead free connector finishes. We want to run solderability tests on a series of lead free connector plating options in a series lead free PCB's. I need some advice on the most popular lead free PCB finishes. I am aware

Hello All, I am trying to find some answers regarding acceptability of a RJ-11 Connector (phone jack). We have just received thousands of these connectors in and some of the gold plate contacts show some discoloration. The contacts are pink. I was w

In the purest sense of ESD control, we would have to say yes, use ESD tape to cover the gold fingers. The gold fingers are connected directly to input/output controls for the card, and, as we all know, when handling boards, we're supposed to avoid c

Ok let's start backwards abit, and move progressively from a common understanding. So this originator thread-slinger bloke is asking for advise to Au plate his connector pads. We have a cuppa ideas bounced around which leads to my ignorance based q

I feel the solder connections were fine. The anchor pads for this device on the board are covered by solder mask. So the leads of the connector take all the stress. The component was broken off and under a scope you can see the plating of each lead

The parameters which effect the problem you are having are flux and contact time try first increasing the flux you are applying. Next reduce the contact time in the wave by adjusting the back flow plate. If the problem is a jig design check out the j

Well, no fault with your calculations from here. They appear to be correct. [Logic doesn't appear to be off to far off base, either. An epiphany, eh?] As mentioned in an earlier posting on this thread, consider following the recommendations of IP

John, I have never seen black pad covering a majority of the board, that would be a scarry thought. I think he is talking about building modules (sims dims) and getting soldering spatering on the gold edge connectors. We went the rounds with that s

We build a product that requires a lithium battery. There is a Smt Battery clip soldered onto two gold pads on a FR4 PCB. The battery is forced by two little clips punched out to provided downward pressure in the battery holder, enabling the lithium
