Thanks Dick, good idea about holding it in place.
FvM, I don't have full datasheet sorry. It's a samtec ZHR5-20-02-F-RA though. Drawings available online. Incidentally, we had some problems with the plastic connector warping during reflow. Anyone had similar problem before? I wonder if that...
Thanks Barry, thanks dick
Barry,
no deliberate vibration or temperature cycling applied. However the parts will have seen some baking at 70oC for a few hours to cure some glue used elsewhere. Actually, we try to fit a brass shell to the connector after connector is fitted and when we solder...
Hi, I have a problem with a surface mount connector. .. nearly half of the 40 pins have bad solier joint after reflow. They look OK but they fail after a few weeks (cracking). Have tried touchup by reflowing the bad joints using solder iron but the parts fail again a few weeks later. Using sn63...
