10 March 2004 Interconnection

Tyco Electronics has announced that its line of Micro MATE-N-LOK connectors have 'passed test by VDE under their registration number 40005280/continuous surveillance' according to the association. The VDE certification mark allows the product to be used throughout Europe and certifies compliance with European standards.

Micro MATE-N-LOK connectors are based on 3 mm centrelines and are available in wire-to-wire, wire-to-board, single row and double row configurations. They are suitable for a variety of industrial and commercial applications including medical devices, household appliances, commercial appliances, industrial controls and other applications that require small centreline power and signal I/O connections.

Micro MATE-N-LOK connectors are available in dual row and single row configurations. Additionally, designers can select from either right angle or vertical headers for the wire-to-board versions. Contacts are crimped to wire and accept two wire ranges: 24-20 AWG or 30-26 AWG. The headers are IR reflow process compatible and are available in through-hole or surface mount configurations.

The receptacle contacts are phosphor bronze with tin-lead, or gold plating. Plug contacts are brass with tin-lead or gold plating and housings are UL 94V-0 nylon.
