FCI Expands Successful D-Sub Pin-in-Paste Product Portfolio
ETTERS, PA. (April 21, 2009) - FCI, a leading developer of connectors and interconnect
systems, has extended its reflow process-compatible D-Sub family of connectors by adding 37-position connectors to the existing range of right-angle version Pin-In-Paste connectors offered in 9 to 25 positions with through-hole technology. This product line will allow customers to reduce their total applied costs by replacing wave-soldering or press-fit operations without requiring a new PCB layout, as well as saving time with possible automatic placement. This makes the D-Sub Pin-In-Paste connector ideal for applications such as daughter boards in industrial and telecom applications.
"The FCI D-Sub Pin-In-Paste technology provides many advantages over SMT," said
George Varghese, global product manager at FCI. "In line with customer expectations, the FCI D-Sub Pin-In-Paste connectors are more robust than SMT connectors due to throughhole technology. Moreover, moving from solder-to-board or press-fit processes is easy and fast with the D-Sub Pin-in-Paste connectors because no board layout redesign is required, while boards must be significantly modified to be compliant with SMT connectors."
The D-Sub Right Angle Pin-In-Paste range is offered in 9-, 15-, 25- and 37-way versions in two standard footprints: US style with 6.3mm standoff and Europe style with 7.2mm standoff. The connector's specific weight balance ensures it will stay in its initial position as it is reflow-processed.
The existing straight version of the FCI Delta D Pin-in-Paste range is offered in 9- to 50-way versions. The entire product line is available in a variety of packaging options compatible with existing customer processes: manual positioning, automatic pick-and-place with vacuum nozzle, or gripper.
The Delta D Pin-In-Paste range meets the RoHS European Directive EU 2002/95/EC.
