Technet:

    We have a 0.125 +/- 10% thick backplane board stuffed with connectors
with 3 rows of pins @ 0.512 long.
The length is too long and we would like to use the next shortest length
which is 0.157.
The question: Is the 0.157 pin long enough to have a good solder joint if
the board is at MMC of 0.137 - allowing the pin to come through
the board only 0.020?
We are using 63/37 solder.

Thanks,
Barbara Burcham
In Texas, Y'all
