We have a board that uses a solder pad for one of the contacts of a button battery and had no problems when we were washing the boards. We are now using a no-clean flux and find that on a bunch of boards there is a coating of flux covering the pad s

Some no-cleans will pool flux on the top of the solder joint which acts like an insulator. I normally do not paste "contact" pads. You can have your board house HASL them if you need the extra bump on the pad.

To be honest, I have never had success wave soldering or reflow soldering batteries, regardless of their intended use. If you're going to continue a manual operation to solder one pin, I'd suggest that you just solder the entire component in by ha

First, don't exceed the maximum temperature of the battery, say 85*C [I don't know your specifics] Second, don't short the terminals of the battery. Third, the best way to wave solder a battery is: * Insert an insulating tab between the battery an

I am trying to find a removable tab to place between a coin cell battery and the + contact of the battery holder. We want to have the battery installed in the holder and have the user remove a tab to enable the battery. Thanks James

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

I'm looking for some SMD shims or something to solve this problem. We have a coin cell on a PCB and the side that contacts the PCB also has traces under the cell that don't connect to the cell. So I'm after some small dots of something suitable for

I have a stamped steel battery contact to pick that has a pick location 11mm deep in the tape. The factory machine settings only allow 6.6mm of "over-drive" depth past the top of the carrier tape. Based on that, I will need a custom nozzle that is
