Designed for military, aerospace as well as commercial applications, Tyco Electronics says that its wide range of Microdot connectors can be used for numerous applications such as avionics, in-flight entertainment, military instrumentation, radar systems, control systems, missile and optical. The Microdot connector range includes microminiature D, rectangular, circular and coaxial connectors.

The MCK and MCD microminiature D connectors are available with metal (MCK) and plastic (MCD) shells and feature a very low mating force achieved by specially-designed Twist/Con pin contacts. Electrical contact occurs at many points around the periphery of the pin bundle rather than just at a few discrete points.

Both MCK and MCD connectors meet requirements of MIL-PRF-83513 for intermateability, interchangeability and performance. Available with soldercup and solid or stranded wire termination, the devices benefit from a 3 A rating per contact. The MCK metal shell contact also comes with an interfacial seal as per MIL-R-25988.

The Microdot high density, lightweight multipin circular type connectors are ideally suited to applications where many conductors must be accommodated in a minimum of space with minimum weight. All circular connectors feature a crimp retention method, requiring no insertion or removal tools.

Microdot's standard coaxial connectors are designed to accept 50, 70 and 93 Ω miniature coaxial cables. Coaxial connectors are available as screw-on series, slide-on series or quick-connect series.
