The discussion centers on the challenges of finding low temperature LCC (Leadless Chip Carrier) components capable of operating at temperatures below 77K. Participants noted that most commercially available LCCs are only rated for temperatures down to -70°C. A practical solution suggested involves testing various brands by submerging them in liquid nitrogen (LN2) to assess their performance at low temperatures. It was also mentioned that certified components for space missions are available but come at a premium price.
