Connectors ensure close board stacking

FCI has expanded its Conan range of PCB stacking connectors to cover six different parallel board spacings up to 7mm.

FCI has expanded its Conan range of PCB stacking connectors to cover six different parallel board spacings up to 7mm.

The microminiature surface mount headers and receptacles provide up to 69 contact positions for space-limited board-to-board interconnection.

The Conan connectors have also been added to FCI's Basics+ programme, offering 24 hour sample shipment and easy product selection via FCI's concise Basics+ catalogue and website section.

By combining a standard 3.28mm deep receptacle with one of the series of six low profile headers, mated Conan connector heights of 4.15, 4.5, 5.0, 5.5, 6.0 and 7.0mm can be achieved to support a variety of off-board component heights.

With dual contact rows and a pitch of 1mm, the connector system offers a high circuit density of 50 contacts per inch.

Conan's angled contact and passive latch guards against accidental separation due to shock or vibration.

Polarised housings prevent mismating of the connector, while an audible click during mating signals correct engagement.

Supplied on tape-and-reel, Conan' headers and receptacles are compatible with all automated surface mount board assembly processes.

Integrated PCB retaining strips help to increase the mechanical strength of the connector assembly after soldering.

The connector's "blade-on-beam" contacts guard against the possibility of "peeling" damage.
