SMT power connector

4 June 2014 Interconnection

Harting’s Han-Fast Lock connector range is designed to meet the demands placed on power electronics despite being surface-mounted onto a printed circuit board. It facilitates the supply of up to 60 A to or from a circuit board through only one contact point. Conductor lines are through-plated and given a drill hole and supporting point.

Pre-assembled solutions are available, such as the Han Q 4/2 connector with pre-connected litz wires and circuit board contact, which can be supplied as a pre-tested system and connected to the circuit board, as shown in the accompanying image. Litz wires measuring up to 10 mm² can be used with the Han-Fast Lock contact. The pre-assembled contact is fitted to the prepared circuit board and the pin provided is engaged to lock the circuit board.
