Gold plated MolexSL terminals? #226

brettbbonner started this conversation in SystemCore Hardware

Came across this comment (about Molex SL in FIRST Choice) which notes that MotionCore/SystemCore are using gold plated terminals - and how one should never interconnect gold to tin. But I can't seem to find any official(-ish) statement about the use of gold terminals. I hope it is true; can we get a confirmation of that? Thanks!

Thank you @ThadHouse, that's perfect. (And an interesting read that I had not found previously.)

Here's an article from Molex on the topic:

Yes, that's why I'm happy it's gold... we switched to gold last year and this way no tin-to-gold cables are needed, yay!

Made a table for the SL connectors need to mate with the SystemCore. See link below to my post in the SL Connector Discussion group
