TechNet,

I am designing FR4 based components with copper wire-wound magnetic cores.
I will have exposed  copper on the wire after assembly.  My customers will
then reflow my assembly on to their boards using whatever flux they pick.

Is the exposed copper a problem and gross leak check the cover or should I
open mouse holes in the cover and not worry about copper corrosion and the
environment?

Feedback would be much appreciated.

Frank
