Molex Coeur CST High-Current Interconnect System
Molex Coeur CST series sockets are offered in 3.4, 6, and 8-millimeter diameters, with current ratings ranging from 30A to 200A. All sizes provide an industry-leading 1mm of float to accommodate misalignment for easy mating.
The float allows the entire core socket assembly to move within the housing without adding stress to the contacts or increasing resistance due to contact deflection. Sockets are offered in press-fit and SMT variants with a pick-and-place cap. CST series male pins are available in various lengths to set stack height.
The pin won’t protrude above the socket with top entry mating, maintaining a low profile and reducing PCB or bus bar clearance requirement. Additionally, the pins are available in screw mount.
