Product Description
Solderball Pin Technology
Packaged in Tape and Reel for use with standard feeders for automated placement. The product contains a Solderball that maintains its shape during multiple solder reflow processes. The PC board or device can then easily be soldered to pads on another parallel PC board. The Solderball pins accommodate up to 0.508 mm (0.020 in) coplanarity variation with high current reliability.
Additional Information
Pin terminal - High Conductivity Copper alloy
Solder sphere - RoHs Compliant SAC alloy or Tin/Lead
Packaging - STD 16 mm (0.629 in) Tape & Reel per Spec EIA-481
Pick & Place - Pin through paste via standard SMT equipment
Applications
Solderball Pin™ Technology is engineered and widely used on POL (point of load) DC/DC Power applications when a PCB mezzanine design is necessary due to real estate limitations, offering additional thermal dissipation capability via the robust mechanical connection.
Compact configuration and flexibility as a discrete SMT component facilitates adoption into a broad scope of applications, including electronic lighting controls, remote telemetry monitoring, Ethernet, fibre channel, storage area networks, automotive, and many other daughter-to-motherboard module-based subassemblies.
