As demand for RFI shielding has risen significantly, the need for an effective way to mount shields has now been addressed by Harwin.
The Futurebus system offers design flexibility with PCB receptacles and headers that are end to end stackable.
Vertical male headers and right-angle female receptacles are available in one-, two-, four- and eight-module formats with four- and five-row options.
Compliant press fit leads offer fast, solderless application to printed circuit boards.
Housings are manufactured from high temperature liquid crystal polymer (LCP) whilst contacts are selective gold/tin plated for reliability and performance.
The connectors have a current rating of 1.0A per pin, an initial contact resistance of 25mohm and operate between -55 and +125C.
Components are packaged in tubes.
