We are facing a shortage of an IEC input connector which is wave soldered into our board. The pins are tin plating over copper. The connector supplier is offering substitute parts which are nickel plating over brass. We are concerned about the solderability. Is this a valid concern? Does anyone have any success or failure stories regarding similar situations. Any input would be appreciated. I would also appreciate it if responses could be sent direct to [log in to unmask] in addition to TechNet.
