1 Use the information provided in Chapter 2 to design pads
on your board and holes for mounting the retention
module.
The soft touch probes are attached to the PC board using
a retention module which ensures pin- to- pad alignment
and holds the probe in place.
2 Use flux as necessary to clean the board and pins before
soldering the retention module to the board.
3 If your board has Organic Solder Preservative (OSP)
finish, apply solder paste to the footprint pads prior to
reflow or hand soldering.
Typically, dipped and coated finishes do not require extra
solder paste.
4 Attach the retention module to the board from either the
top or bottom of the board:
Top- side attach
