Kyocera AVX has expanded its family of single-piece card edge connector solutions by adding the new 9159-650 series vertical double-row top-in card edge connectors. Committed to under the extreme operating environment of the vertical, PCB matching automotive, industrial, and lighting applications provide important function, the new series provides a high temperature thermoplastic insulators, UL94 rating V 0 combustion performance, and is equipped with the company powerful compression contact system, adopts the gold-plated BeCu contact with high reliability, even in challenging conditions, It also has high signal integrity performance and has been supported by a wide range of electronic application deployments for over 25 years.
Since listing in 2013. The new series of vertical, dual-row top-insert card-edge connectors offer 4 to 12 contacts rated at 2.5 each for a complete positioning in a staggered, dual-row configuration, enabling roughly the same number of contact positions as the smaller form series vertical style, single row, top insert card-edge connector, field proven in rugged automotive, industrial and lighting applications. The new series of vertical, double row, top-mount card edge connectors are rated for 300VAC and 10 cycle operating temperatures ranging from -40°C to +125°C. also. They also come with 1.6mm thick mating PCB gold plated pads for polarization and provide options, in this case mating PCB layout modifications to form keys to stop improper insertion and are compatible with automated pick and place and SMT termination devices, in this case , Polyimide film tape roll before application.
Product Manager Kyocera AVX Kat Vojacek said: "AVX has been producing compression contact technology that has been proven in critical, harsh environment applications for over 25 years and is proud to not only offer a wide range of standard horizontal and vertical card-edge connectors solutions in the industry, but continue to innovate to address gaps in the market,"
"We developed the new 9159-650 series of vertical, dual-row, top-entry card edge connectors to meet the industry's growing demand for compact, robust card edge connectors with more contacts, by utilizing staggered contact Point design to provide twice as many contacts in roughly the same shape as the existing 00-9159 series single row solutions, semi-custom and full Customized solutions to meet almost any application requirement."
