Hi all,
I have a naïve question. I have never developed a board with a socket that directly interfaces with PCB pads. I grew up blowing into Nintendo cartridges to make games run, so I have an irrational fear of sockets for applications that require long term performance (10y+). Of course, in Nintendo's case the sockets were in constant use, and pin surface technology must have advanced somewhat by now.
Any opinions on whether the MicroMod Teensy's M.2 MicroMod connector is going to be ~as safe as soldering in a standard Teensy board for long term reliability?
Thanks!
