More power to the backplane
A new hard metric power connector with a current rating up to 23A per contact provides a reliable and cost-effective solution for connecting plug-in units to backplanes.
The right-angle male connector for use on daughtercards can be supplied with either press-fit or PIHR (pin-in-hole reflow) contacts.
The compact high-temperature moulding can be loaded with up to four high current contacts, while four different contact mating lengths enable sequenced and nonsequenced loadings such as GND and ENA as specified by OBSAI.
The straight female connector for backplanes is fitted with press-in contacts.
The footprint of the individual contact on the backplane is symmetrical.
For boards with a thickness of at least 8mm, the connector can be pressed in from both sides using the same holes to save additional space on the board.
