Cautions on Using Sockets
This section describes cautions on using sockets such as the target connector and exchange adapter.
The following symbols are used in this section.
• TC:
Target connector
• EA:
Exchange adapter
• MA: Mount adapter
• CA:
Check pin adapter
• SA:
Space adapter
• EP:
Extension probe
4.5.1
Cautions on inserting/removing sockets
• When inserting an adapter such as EA, MA, or SA in TC, insert it so that the position of pin 1 (where the corner is
cut) on each adapter matches. Be sure to insert the connectors in the correct direction (so that the positions match).
• Remove or insert the sockets in the correct direction (see Figure 4-7).
• Be sure to hold the lower (mating) connector or board with your fingers when inserting or removing a socket.
• Use a bamboo spit or similar object as a tool to remove the connector. Insert the tool between TC and EA and
remove TC in the correction direction as shown in Figure 4-7. If force is applied to the connector in the wrong
direction, the connector will be damaged. If only a metallic object such as a screwdriver is available as leverage,
wrap its tip in a soft cloth.
4.5.2
Causes of faulty contact of connectors and countermeasures for them
Possible causes of faulty connector contact and countermeasures are listed below.
• If flux gets inside TC when it is mounted
Thoroughly clean the flux with a solvent such as alcohol. Cleaning must be performed at least 5 to 6 times. If
conduction is still not stable, repeat cleaning.
• If dirt gets inside the connector
If dirt, such as threads, gets inside the connector, defective conduction occurs. Remove any dirt with a brush.
• Cautions on using CA, SA, and EP
When CA, SA, or EP is inserted, a very small amount of delay in the signal propagation and capacitance occur.
Thoroughly evaluate these points after CA, SA, or EP is connected to the target system.
