Harwin Flecto Floating Connectors
Look at the challenges designers face when specifying board-to-board connectors and learn how the latest floating connector technologies address those challenges.
White Paper Overview
Introducing the Flecto Floating Connectors — fine-pitch, board-to-board connectors offering perfect alignment, high speed data transmission, mixed signal and power options, plus multiple mating heights.
The mating area of the male connector can move by up to ±0.8mm from the centerline. This compensates for positional mis-alignment across multiple connectors. It also eases any stresses from misaligned connections, helping maintain the contact force over time.
These connectors are designed to provide movement in the X, Y and Z axis of the male connector and the movement allows for added location tolerance.
Gull-wing SMT terminations on the signal contacts allow easy solder inspection. Additional SMT hold-downs on the signal-only connectors give increased peel strength on the PCB. Location pegs or throughboard power pins provide assembly aids for PCB placement.
Up to 160 contacts in a symmetrical double-row layout. Choose from 3 miniature pitches: 0.5mm (.0197”), 0.635mm (.025”) & 0.8mm (0.0315”). Additional power pins with a current rating of 3A in the 0.5mm pitch range.
