Tiny Connectors stack small form factor boards
Press Release Summary:
Micro pitch pin and socket connectors work in micro/miniature applications. Square terminals mate with dual beam Tiger Claw or single beam Tiger Beam contacts. The 0.0315 in. system includes FTE Series headers and AW Series stackers which provide board spacings from 0.0197 to 0.355 in. when mated with CLE Series sockets. The 0.0394 pitch system has FTM Series headers and MW Series stackers with spacings from 0.137 to 0.365 in. when mated with CLM or MLE Series sockets.
Original Press Release:
Micro Pitch Interconnects Provide Reliable Board Stacking Interfaces
Samtec's micro pin-and-socket connectors on .8mm (0315") and 1mm (.0394") pitch significantly increase interconnect density for small form factor, micro/miniature applications without sacrificing the electrical and mechanical benefits of traditional pin and socket construction.
The 0,30mm (.012") square terminals mate with unique dual beam Tiger Claw contacts or single beam Tiger Beam contacts. Both are suitable for pass through applications.
The .8mm (.0315") system includes headers (FTE Series) and stackers (AW Series) which provide board spacings from 5mm (.0197") to 9mm (.355") when mated with CLE Series surface mount sockets. The dual row interconnectors have up to 90 pins per row for pinout densities as high as 350 per square inch of board space.
The 1mm (.0394") pitch system also includes headers (FTM Series) and stackers (MW Series) with board spacings from 3.5mm (.137") to 9.25mm (.365") when mated with CLM or MLE Series sockets. Both systems include right-angle headers for perpendicular board interface applications. Pricing begins .08¢ - .10¢ per mated line.
