Connectors ensure close board stacking
14 August 2002
Interconnection
FCI has expanded its Conan range of PCB stacking connectors to cover six different parallel board spacings up to 7 mm. The microminiature surface mount headers and receptacles provide up to 69 contact positions for space limited board-to-board interconnection.
By combining a standard 3,28 mm deep receptacle with one of the series of six low profile headers, mated Conan connector heights of 4,15, 4,5, 5,0, 5,5, 6,0 and 7,0 mm can be achieved to support a variety of off-board component heights. With dual contact rows and a pitch of 1 mm, the connector system offers a high circuit density of 20 contacts per cm.
Conan's angled contact and passive latch guards against accidental separation due to shock or vibration. Polarised housings prevent mismating of the connector, while an audible click during mating signals correct engagement.
Supplied on tape-and-reel, Conan headers and receptacles are compatible with all automated surface-mount board assembly processes. Integrated PCB retaining strips help increase the mechanical strength of the connector assembly after soldering. The connector's 'blade-on-beam' contacts guard against the possibility of 'peeling' damage.
