New Mezza-pede(TM) 1 mm Low Profile SMT Connector System
West Warwick, R.I., September 30, 2008 - New Mezza-pede(TM) 1mm SMT Connectors from Advanced Interconnections Corp. are designed for 1mm pitch micro board-to-board and flex cable-to-board applications. The screw-machined, low profile Mezza-pede Connector system is especially suited for high reliability applications such as providing power to a tunable laser since this connector passes mixed flowing gas (MFG) tests, ensuring continuous performance in the field.
With a mated height of only 4mm, Mezza-pede Connectors are suitable for mezzanine board applications where z-axis space is a constraint. The patented pin and lead frame design is fully surface mountable and features screw-machined terminals with multi-finger contacts with a per contact current rating of greater than 1 Amp @ 80ºC. An over-molded lead frame seals the surface mount pins to prevent solder wicking and ensures a solid solder joint at the PCB level. Precision molded from high temperature LCP, the RoHS compliant, two-piece connector system is fully compatible with lead-free solder profiles.
Standard sizes include dual row 8- and 14-position models with other pin counts and optional enhancements such as shrouds for polarized mating available on a customized basis. A thru-hole header is also available. The product is packaged in tape and reel for automated assembly. Lead time is 2-4 weeks.
Advanced Interconnections Corp. is an ISO 9001:2000 certified designer and manufacturer of electronic interconnect solutions.
