TE Connectivity (TE) has introduced a range of miniature free height surface-mount board-to-board connectors for parallel board-stacking applications.
The connectors have a 0.8 mm pitch: this reduces the board space required by the connectors by up to 50% when compared to conventional board-to-board connectors with a pitch of 1.27 mm.
Mated combinations of the vertical connector plugs and receptacles enable designers to achieve stacking heights from 5 mm to 16 mm in increments of 1 mm. In addition, right-angle plugs which mate to standard receptacles are available.
The connectors are available with between 40 and 200 positions, with options in between in 20-position increments. The receptacles use a bellows-type spring contact for reliable electrical connection with the plugs.
