World's smallest 0,6 mm pitch ID connector

5 March 2008 Interconnection

The new XSR Series of wire-to-board connectors from JST is said to be the world's smallest 0,6 mm pitch insulation displacement (ID) connector for discrete wires. Where space is an issue and miniaturisation a requirement, this connector with a mounting height of 1,45 mm and a depth of 3,0 mm fits the bill.

The proven twin U-slot along with a new design approach for wire strain relief guarantees a highly reliable contact/connector system. This connector system has a secure locking design between the socket housing and PCB assembly accompanied by an audible click to ensure connector mating integrity.

The XSR series is currently available in 2, 4, 6, 10, 16, 20 and 22 position wire connectors with accompanying side entry printed circuit board connectors. The series is rated at 0,2 A and 30 V a.c./d.c.
