Can metal dome be soldered to printed circuit board?

Monday, May 31st, 2010

Can metal dome be soldered to printed circuit board? We aren’t recommend. When metal dome are pushed, the feet actually move outward slightly. When soldered to circuit board, the feet of the domes are restricted from their natural movement. This restriction can negatively affect the tactile response of the domes, and in some cases, cause irreparable damage to metal dome or break the solder joint. so we aren’t recommend to solder the snap dome on printed circuit board.
