What I do amounts to re-flowing the solder. I'm looking at the bottom of a Pico 2 that just came in today and the solder in those holes looks like it could stand re-flow. I've made the easy mistake of adding too much solder and it flows...

The jack isn't designed to deform to accept stress. The plug is designed to deform to accept stress. ( mini usb was the other way around ) This is a design change that attempted to reduce the failure of embedded jacks. I hate to be...

I always backup the USB connector when plugging in the USB cable. By that I mean, laying the board on a flat surface and placing a finger on the backside of the female connector on the board then plugging in the cable with the other hand making...

What you are doing, with an improbably high word count, is rejecting any suggestion that doesn't fit the answer you have chosen. I have never had an issue with a loose usb socket. Only one tearing right off. One. A suggestion in general ...

Yes. The only common factor here is you and your equipment.

Hey folks, I'm happy to report I was able to create a custom teensy with sdram using this thread as a reference 😁 I was already in the throws of designing a custom teensy board that had usb host, usb device, and microsd all on a single edge...

At this point I have to wonder what you expect done.

I reinforce the jacks with a bit of solder on the mounting tabs., and now check just about everything that has a micro usb to see if it needs the same. This has prevented a lot of problems

Now i did my PCB with teensy 4.1 and a wiring sandwich that put the cs42448 at the bottom side,the pitch that works is 2.0mm There's a connector on the up side to connect a TFT 7" RA8875,and also and EXT SDCARD reader because the building SDCARD...

Having just fallen down the Eurorack rabbit hole ( acquiring parts, building related stuff ) I am waiting to pounce when it is ready to be pounced upon.
