Product Specification Series: FCF8 / FCS8 0,80 mm (.0315”) High Speed Cost-Effective Micro Coax Cable Assembly / Receptacle 8.0 PROCESSING RECOMMENDATIONS 8.1 MATING ANGLE REQUIREMENTS: Cable must be axially aligned to connector when mated and un-mated. 8.1.1 8.2 Maximum Reflow Passes: The parts can withstand three reflow passes at a maximum oven temperature of 260°C. 8.3 Stencil Thickness: The stencil thickness is .006” (0,15 mm). Paste in hole technology to be used to solder the front shield tabs. 8.4 Placement: Machine placement of the parts in the Z-axis is strongly recommended. 8.5 Thermal Profile: Due to the large number of processing variables (printed wiring board design, reflow oven type, component quantity, solder paste type, etc.), Samtec does not provide specific reflow profiles for any connector. We recommend that the solder paste manufacturer’s guidelines be followed for optimum soldering results. 8.6 Reflow Environment: Samtec recommends the use of a low level oxygen environment (typically achieved through Nitrogen gas infusion) in the reflow process to improve solderability.
