Molex Micro Products for Smaller Applications Available at Heilind Electronics


WILMINGTON, Mass. -- Heilind Electronics, North America's largest interconnect distributor, has partnered with Molex Incorporated, a world leader in interconnect technology, to provide a complete menu of the industry's smallest interconnect solutions for digital product applications: Micro-Fit 3.0(TM), Micro-USB, and MicroSD memory card connectors.

Micro-USB sets the flexibility and compactness standard for ultra-thin portable devices, offering a volumetric space reduction greater than 50% versus Mini-USB. These connectors are compliant with the Micro-USB 1.0 standard and support the current USB On-the-Go (OTG) supplement, giving both designers and users the convenience of mobile point-to-point connectivity.

Micro-Fit 3.0 is a unique interconnect system designed to meet the need for small, high-contact-density signal or power connectors incorporating features previously found only on larger power connectors. These 3.00mm (.118") pitch connectors are designed for applications requiring up to 5 amps of current per circuit in a very small package. Micro-Fit products are available in 2 to 24 circuits, single or dual row, for both wire-to-board and wire-to-wire applications.

MicroSD Memory Card Connectors are designed for cell phones and other mobile devices that use removable flash memory to store text, photos, games, video and audio. These new connectors offer a 70% space reduction over miniSD products and include a brake feature for smooth card extraction.

Heilind Electronics' extensive inventory of Molex products supports a wide range of markets including medical, automotive, transportation, energy, industrial controls and data communications. Heilind is Molex's largest distributor with the most complete inventory of Molex products. In addition to the world's largest interconnect inventory, Heilind offers a powerful and flexible portfolio of supply chain and logistics management tools & services, while delivering unsurpassed customer service.
