Laser Soldering: minimum hole applicable and depth? :arrow:
Hi guys,
I need to ensure that the press fit pins are very stable by applying solder to it and the best method I can think of is laser soldering after SMT + Press-fitting the connector. Unfortunately the hole diameter is 0.3mm and depth of pins could be around 1mm at 2.34mm PCB thickness. Does anyone know if laser soldering can be done with such small drill hole? Considering that the solder can only be applied at the exit points of the press fit connectors (or pre apply the solder paste at the top connector side). Thanks for your reply and thoughts on this.
