Using the solder-pin installation tool
The supplied set of solder pins are intended to be installed on DUT circuit boards and used with the supplied
MMCX-to-square-pin adapter. To install the solder pins, use the supplied soldering-aide tool as described below
NOTE.
The solder pins are extremely small and can be challenging to handle. It is recommended to use tweezers and
a magnifying tool when installing pins on a circuit board.
1.
Carefully insert the solder pins into the soldering aide tool as shown below.
2.
Use the soldering aide tool to hold the solder pins in place while soldering the pins to the circuit board.
3.
If necessary, apply a small amount of adhesive to further strengthen the connection to the circuit board. However, keep
the height of the adhesive to a minimum to provide good electrical contact for the adapter.
