Minitek™ 2mm Pin-in-Paste Headers Amphenol FCi Minitek™ 2mm Pin-in-Paste Headers are board-to-board and cable/wire-to-board interconnect systems compatible with Pin-in-Paste (PiP) soldering processes. Pin-in-Paste technology allows the use of TMT products in SMT manufacturing processes. The connectors are automatically or manually placed on the board, then soldered in the same operationas the SMT components. Despite this, the mechanical strenght of the TMT soldering is maintained, an important requirement for connectors nowadays in many industrial or automotive applications.
