Hi Technetters,
 
i want to solder receptacles (diameter 2,0mm) in a pcb. my problem is i need 3 rows in a center of 2,54mm like this:

How can i solder the receptacle in the middle?
my idea is to manufacture a pcb with a solder ring around the drilling hole for the receptacle. So if i put the receptacles in the pcb i only have to heat the pcb with a hot-air blower and my receptacles have a save electrical connection with the pcb.
Is this possible? Has anyone experience with something like that?
 
thanks,
Christof
