The new MJ04 series 2mm metric connector system from JAE complies with the IEC 1076-4-101 electrical and mechanical specification for CompactPCI interconnection.
Low-profile FPC connectors offer greater density
The FB1 series from JAE is a 0.3mm pitch low profile connector for FPC (flexible printed circuits) designed for use in applications where size and weight are a premium.
The JN1 and JN2 receptacles are available in both through-hole and crimp versions that can be mounted directly on the board, while the plug is a reliable crimp connection type with simple wiring and assembly.
The all-plastic body of the new range contributes to a low weight of 11g for the JN1 devices and 30.5g for the JN2 parts.
Features of the new series also include excellent environmental protection such as waterproofing and dust proofing conforming to IP67 specifications, as well as safeguards against vibration and oil.
Additionally, the JN2 range of connectors has a threefold increase in breaking strength due to partial metallisation of certain parts.
JAE offers straight and 90-degree angle type plugs, which allow the direction of the cable leader to be set in four directions by rotating the angle type plug 90 degrees in each direction.
The new connector series offer a withstand voltage of 900V AC RMS and is rated for 200V AC RMS.
Contact resistance is measured at 20mohm, and insulation resistance is in excess of 1Gohm.
Operating temperature range for the new connectors is from -20 to +100C.
