Tantalum capacitors have thin-film fuses
Unlike conventional devices that incorporate a lead wire fuse, TAW series tantalum capacitors are fully lead-free and RoHS compliant.
Available in 36 (x1), 64 (x4), 98 (x8) and 164 (x16) contact positions, all in 1.00mm pitch, the one piece high density connector supports different bandwidth requirements for a 1.58mm thick "addon" graphics card for user upgrades.
"The 6325 PCI Express card edge connector enables hot plug and hot swap while the scalable modular design maximises card interoperability", said Rakesh Shah, AVX's PCI Product Manager.
"All connectors support PCI Express signal and power requirements, as well as the interface between system board and the addon card specifications, and the simple through hole design enables a low-cost board assembly process".
Different tail (contact) lengths (2.3 and 3.0mm) are available to support differing motherboard thickness.
Locating bosses ensure proper connector alignment to the motherboard and an ejector latch is also available for easy detachment.
Tails are offset to form four rows on a 2.00mm pitch.
This new series is also available as lead free RoHS compliant. Request a free brochure from AVX ...
