Hello,

Does anyone have experience reflowing 68-pin PCMCIA connectors successfully?
Our assembly shop is hand placing right now because they claim the weight of
the connector at the contact end causes the pins to lift up during reflow.
There has been discussion on making up a carrier for the panels but I'm
wondering how other assembly shops handle these components.

And on that note, the housing that we place these cards in is modified
in-house as we require the back end of the board to be visible.  I'm looking
for a manufacturer that can do a custom case but am having zero success
finding someone who wants the business.  If there are any suggestions,
please contact me off-line.

Thanks.
