Questions are: * What is the current plating on the connector that is over the "plating of the leads is Nickel (99.9% purity)"? * What are the temperatures and durations at those temperatures that you read on these connector leads? * What solder allo

Hi, Has anyone here get some experience with SMT connector soldering? We were having really hard time to solder this AMP 50/50 Grid connector. Every connector installed has a few pins just sit on the solder. We use AIM 293DX2B NC solder paste, 60

Hi , Our hardware designer wants to introduce a board with a straddle - mounted SMT connector, AMP part number 84487-1 and FCI 71292-001. This is an 80 pin connector that slips over the edge of the PCB and has 40 SMT pads on either side (at least thi

We have a customer that is using the new Hirose connector p/n df30fc-40dp-0.4v. The connector has lead spacing of .4mm. I beleive that if I have a stencil cut to 2-3 mil I should have enough solder paste to solder the connector to the PCB pads. Ho

That you have 'grainy' solder only at the ends of the connector and not at all solder connections indicates that your quality types are on track and are pointing you in a direction worthy of investigation and developing a better understanding of the

Hello. Could anyone tell me what kind of connectors these are on these cables & where to get them from? They are for ribbon cables to mount 3M DIL test clips to ribbon. I have tried contacting 3M but they don't seem to want to respond. These connecto

The issue is surface tension around the connector. Your tip needs to have more surface tension than the pins of the connector as it forms a cluster when being soldered. When I used to solder superfine connectors with a metcal iron it had a horses hoa

Hi, Could someone point me in direction (article, project, schema or company that could do this prototype) how to isolate two power inputs (A and B) connectors from each other? When A is connected it does not pass current to B connector? Also on

| can any body help on assembling straddle mount connectors on to a board? for information on the connector - it is a berg micropak connector 1. You need a fixture to insure the pins don't bend while inserting them on the board, coplanarity is a re

Hello Peterson, If the contact tails protruded enough on the underside of the PCB, then you could do a "reverse" press fit. I do not believe that to be the case with the VHDM. Placement equipment is out of my bailiwick but; Usually small SMT connec
