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

Hopefully the coating does contain a UV tracer. We used a silicone years ago that did not, but UV did make it fluoresce to a degree, you just couldn't ensure 100% coverage. One time we did have a problem with the coating getting on connector pins,

Hi Everyone, Could someone please tell me - What happens if a N-type connector having chromate coating over silver plating is hand soldering to a PCB. Does the Chromate coating form a compound with silver, Or does it come off while cleaning excess

We're unaware of any such reaction. The RoHS Directive bans the use of six hazardous materials. The materials are four metals: lead, cadmium, hexavalent chromium, and mercury; and two brominated flame retardants: polybrominated biphenyls (PBB) and p

SMT fine pitch connector having oxidation on lead and P&P machine keep rejecting the part. Is there any alternative way to reduce the part throw out rate without jeopardize the placement accuracy? Or is it possible to re-coat the connector lead or an

My guess would be that the adhesive used on the dots contains silicone. We use 1B73 which is also acrylic and it hates silicone. We use silicone RTV to permanently mask around some connectors and unless its fully cured before coating it will cause l

Questions are: * How did you determine that the coating on your component leads is oxidation? * What is the oxide? BR, davef

If you are a CEM you are setting yourself up for failure and will be left holding the bag. Flash gold has one purpose. It is a protective coating for the base medal to keep it from oxidizing. It is very thin and will be absorbed into the solder joint
