Technetters, I have a problem: A small daughter card (2" x 3") is mounted on a mother board. Daughter card has a mating connector (without locking mechanism) along the one of long edge. Other edge of the daughter card is fastened using stand-off and screws to mother board. As this connector is not a lock-in type, any twist to the board can make connector popping out so slightly that it fails during the test. Fastening at one end is not enough and the vendor does not make connector with lock-in mechanism. Hence, looking for ideas as how to secure the daughter card without going through respinning of the fabs. May be one of you might have faced the similar problem. The gap between daughter card and mother board is about 0.375". re, Ken Patel --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Technet Mail List provided as a free service by IPC using LISTSERV 1.8d To unsubscribe, send a message to [log in to unmask] with following text in the BODY (NOT the subject field): SIGNOFF Technet To temporarily halt delivery of Technet send e-mail to [log in to unmask]: SET Technet NOMAIL To receive ONE mailing per day of all the posts: send e-mail to [log in to unmask]: SET Technet Digest Search previous postings at: www.ipc.org > On-Line Resources & Databases > E-mail Archives Please visit IPC web site http://www.ipc.org/html/forum.htm for additional information, or contact Keach Sasamori at [log in to unmask] or 847-509-9700 ext.5315 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
