Hello Susan,
If memory serves me correctly there was MIL-STD-2119 for backplane
assemblies that had PTH requirements for compliant pins. On the same
braincell, I believe MIL-A-28870 was the fab spec.
I can remember some extensive conversations regarding the applicability of
"press fit" or "compliant pins" for military applications back in the days
of the Tri-Service Committees for MIL-STD-2000. The bottom line was/is, if
designed, assembled and qualified, then the addition of solder is not
required. Personally, in most instances the addition of a heating cycle to
an already mechanically compressed area may cause more problems than it
could help.
