Dear Technos, Having this connector, http://www.kyocera-elco.com/prdct/pdf/6281.pdf <http://www.kyocera-elco.com/prdct/pdf/6281.pdf> and for a while we have been fighting with insufficient solder. After a closer look I realized that solder goes really high on the leads, probably through capillary action, and away from the joints. Please see this gallery http://ipc-technet.groupsite.com/gallery/15945 Are you familiar with this component/phenomenon and how can I fix it? Needless to say, the board has many fine features, so the stencil is 5 mil e-formed and I simply cannot add more thickness. On top of it, I have 44 of these babies on one board, 81 pins each. Thanks, Ioan Tempea, ing.
