Hi all,
We are designing a unit that is planned to sit in the truck dashboard.

The system has 2 boards connected by a b2b connector.

My Qs...

1.      Is it advisable to use SMD connectors on one board and through-hole
mating connector on the other?
2.      What are the pros and cons of using SMD connectors in such harsh
environments?
3.      Does a through-hole connector provide more mechanical stability
compared to the SMD variant?

 

 

Thanks and Best Regards

CK
