Dear Norm,
I saw the article you posted on the IPC TechNet forum and I'm very
interested with it. Is that possible you could share more details of your
experiment with me? I have a customer who asked me to give them a number of
how many times of insertion the 30 micro inch electroplated edge connector
could take before any problem being raised?

When you say 50~75 insertions, what exactly does that mean? Does it mean
the gold plating will be gone and Nickle be exposed? Or it would
malfunction? Or it's for high reliability maintained?!!

Your opinion and  information is highly appreciated. Many thanks!!
YH Shiau

ps: Do you know similar experiments being performed by others??
