We've tried this a few times and found that w/normal use that a
corrosion product forms that leads to increased
resistance/intermittent opens. We don't allow tinned parts in
sockets.

Subject: assy:compatability gold vs tin/lead

We have instances where tin/lead coated pins are inserted into gold plated
sockets, etc. Components even have gold/tin-lead or gold/tin interfaces,
such as an IC socket with a gold contact with a tin sleeve. Mil-Std-889B
indicates gold as being incompatable with tin or tin/lead. Has anyone
looked into this issue and is there a potential for corrosion formation and
associated problems? Again, I just refereing to mechanical contact ( not
soldering ).
Thanks,
