Robust 1.27 mm pitch connectors with 6.5 to 12 mm
mating
SINGAPORE, July 28 /PRNewswire-Asia/ -- ERNI
introduced a new blindmate connector system with SMT or
through-hole termination for mezzanine board-to-board
interconnections. This 1.27 mm pitch connector system with its
modular design, is appropriate for telecommunications and
data-transmission devices. Blindmate feature ensures that it is
especially suitable for use in highly demanding systems that
require for reliability and robust connections.

New 1.27mm blindmate connector from ERNI, MiniMez
Providing 4 different heights of the male
connectors and a standard female connector, the MiniMez connector
system provides stacking heights from 6.5 mm to 12 mm in steps of 2
mm. Other heights could be realized utilizing the generous wipe
length of 2 mm. In addition, customer may choose from a wide range
of pin number from 10 to 100, in step of 2. The unique design
blindmate features with fully shrouded male connectors and robust
thick side walls ensure polarized blindmating without worry of
housing wall breakage. Black colour insulator housing allows fast
and reliable visual recognition.
For termination, engineer can select SMT for
maximum PCB real estate usage or DIP solder for extra mechanical
strain relief. Optionally, PCB locking clip is available for the
SMT termination to take advantage of maximum PCB real estate usage
while not compromising on the PCB retention force. In addition, SMT
termination coplanarity is 100% guaranteed, less than 0.10 mm on
all contacts.
The operating temperature range is specified
as between -55 to +125 degree Celsius. The connectors are delivered
in tube packaging. Tape-and-reel packaging with pick-and-place cap
for fully automatic SMT assembly is also available.
