Original Press Release:
New Hermaphroditic Connectors from Samtec Reduce Costs, Increase Flexibility
Samtec now has three combination socket/terminal interface systems on .100" (2,54mm), 2mm (.0787") and .025 (0,635mm) pitch. These hermaphroditic connectors are self-mating, and therefore can reduce inventory costs by reducing the number of part numbers that must be stocked. All systems feature polarization to prevent incorrect mating and audible "clicks" to verify proper seating.
The .100" (2,54mm) pitch system (LST Series) provides up to 60 I/Os and a board spacing of .535" (13,60mm). It features Samtec's Tiger Buy contacts. Application specific designs are available for other configurations and spacings.
On 2mm (.0787") pitch, a fully shrouded and keyed system (LS2 Series) provides up to 60 I/Os and a .380" (9,65mm) board-to-board spacing. Right-angle designs are available for perpendicular and co-planar board mating. Application specific designs are available for other board spacings.
For micro pitch applications, a system on .025" (0,635mm) pitch (LSS Series) provides full shrouding and board spacings from 6mm (.236") to 12mm (.472") and up to 100 I/Os.
