Samtec offers three combination socket/terminal interface systems on 2,54, 2 and 0,635 mm pitch. These hermaphroditic connectors are self-mating, and therefore can reduce inventory costs by reducing the number of part numbers that must be stocked. All systems feature polarisation to prevent incorrect mating and audible 'clicks' to verify proper seating.
The 2,54 mm pitch system (LST Series) provides up to 60 I/Os and a board spacing of 13,60 mm. It features Samtec's Tiger Buy contacts. Application specific designs are available for other configurations and spacings.
On 2 mm pitch, a fully shrouded and keyed system (LS2 Series) provides up to 60 I/Os and a 9,65 mm board-to-board spacing. Right-angle designs are available for perpendicular and co-planar board mating. Application specific designs are available for other board spacings.
For micro pitch applications, a system on 0,635 mm pitch (LSS Series) provides full shrouding and board spacings from 6 mm to 12 mm and up to 100 I/Os.

Editor's Choice Circuit & System Protection
As soon as electronics and electrical systems started interfering with each other, the world had to come to some consensus. Considering physics is universal and does not care about what country electrical/electronic products are used in, it should be the same everywhere, right? It is nearly there, but not quite.
