Dear Vicki, If you decide to use high temp paste, I suggest that you verify the rating of the components, especially for moisture-sensitive devices which are normally qualified at peak reflow temperatures of 220-235C. The specified floor life will

Luckily for me, if the part were soldered and on the board prior to any processing, I will still be able to build it. I am currently experimenting with screen printing a high temp paste, hand inserting the part (even Chad hasn't come up with an econ
