Pre-Tinned (De-Golded) PCB Connectors

SV Microwave's new pre-tinned PCB connectors are available in our proven high-performance, high-density SMP and SMPM series. SV Microwave has developed a unique and proprietary method for removing gold in the solder area of our RF connectors. These connectors are designed to work with our automated de-golding process which mitigates undesirable remnants of gold plating in the solder joint.

Features / Benefits & Applications
Technical Specs
Additional Resources

Features / Benefits:

Gold in soldered area removed per J-STD-001
Improves reliability of the solder joint
Connectors optimized for pre-tinning at the design stage
Cost savings compared to outsourcing or de-golding in house
Pre-tinning options available in both SN63 and SN96
Robust technical support for design, assembly and trouble-shooting
Footprint design optimization through simulation available

Applications:

Military and Aerospace Radar Transmit/Receive Units
Space and High Reliability Communications and GPS
Harsh Environment Applications (High Vibration, Extreme Temp.)
Any time de-golding is a concern or requirement
