The Solderball Pin is a discrete surface mount component comprising high-performance conductive copper interconnect and a solder-ball interface. The mother-to-daughter PCB connector provides additional solder for final assembly interconnects and allows the sub-assembly to drop and align with the host PCB during reflow, compensating for up to 0.020" co-planarity variance.
PCB designers can pattern and position individual interconnects while maintaining design and layout consistency with new SMT or legacy thru-hole versions, due to the product's reported design flexibility. It also is said to enhance power distribution, increase reliability, and simplify stacked-PCB assembly. Compact configuration and surface mountable form factor allows use in point-of-load (POL) power applications, remote telemetry monitoring, storage area networks, and other mezzanine, module-based sub-assembly stacks.
