Following the recent introduction of the 25 and 37 position connector sizes, Tyco Electronics now offers a complete range of D-Sub connectors for surface mounting, providing an innovative solution for next generation designs. Ensuring efficient and reliable processing, surface mounting of this industry standard interface connector is now a reality for a wide range of applications such as industrial machinery, process control and instrumentation.
Large die-cast mounting brackets at the rear of the connector provide a controlled centre of gravity for stable positioning, and also ensure outstanding mechanical retention and electrical grounding. Fully pick and place capable without force, the connector may be processed efficiently with standard surface mount techniques ensuring seamless integration into existing production. A low 3,6 mm mounting height and short front to back footprint allow maximum density around the connector.
Available in 9 to 37 position plug and socket variants, connectors feature steel, tin-plated front shells with black UL 94V-0 thermoplastic housings and 0,8 μm gold-plated contacts. Hardware options include 4-40 or M3 threaded inserts or screwlocks, or plain 3,1 mm hole.
