Connectors for automotive electronics

10 June 2015 Interconnection

Available from Yamaichi Electronics is a range of connectors conforming to the FAKRA standard as well as its high-speed data (HSD) subset.

The coaxial models of the HF106P range are single-pin board connectors with differential impedance of 50 Ω and a frequency range up to 6 GHz, that meet the requirements of DIN20860 and USCAR 17 and 18. They are available in A, C, D, H, I and K codings, and serve applications such as radio, GPS, GSM or the control of auxiliary heating.

For HSD applications such as USB or IEEE1394, the HF107P series is a four-pin version with an additional shield washer to ensure improved EMC shielding. This variant is initially available in the colour and mechanical codes B, C and E. Another variant – HF108P – offers two additional external pins for separate power supply (each of which can carry 5 A) and is available in D coding.

Both HSD series offer 100 Ω differential impedance, two locking stages, particularly secure connector locking and contact protection on the pins. The design takes the special requirements of the automotive industry into consideration, so the system is specially developed and tested for environmental influences, vibrations, shock and long service life. The metal housing is die-cast zinc, with gold-plated centre contacts with tinned TH solder contacts.
