Hello! I am looking for guidance on choosing gold plating thicknesses and plating processes for circuit board edge fingers. For example: What are the recommendations for circuit board edge fingers that will be inserted into a connector and removed 10 times verses a installation/removal cycle of 50 times? Are there any references on the subject? Any help will be greatly appreciated! Thanks!
