BOARD TO BOARD CONNECTORS MEZZOSTAKTM 0.5MM MEZZANINE CONNECTORS Hermaphroditic, "mates-to-itself" design improves business DESCRIPTION Dual-point mating Guidance Scoops Robust 0.5mm fine pitch mezzanine connector suitable for a wide range of high reliability applications and demanding environments. Innovative hermaphroditic design provides a precise mating interface with extra housing guidance. Reduced product mix simplifies customer connector qualification, documentation and maintenance. Two versions offer a choice between supplemental PCB hold-downs and pegs or short overall length. FEATURES & BENEFITS Hermaphroditic design "mates to itself" * Consolidates connector selection and documentation * Reduces Component Engineering costs Easy, Reliable Mating * Guidance "scoops" permit easy mating when mis-aligned * Polarization prevents mis-mating * Dual-point, long wipe contacs High un-mating force insures connection security Extreme operating temperature range assures reliable performance between -40 and 125 degrees C. Precise 0.08mm maximum SMT lead co-planarity eases attachment of connector leads to PCBs Footprint compatible with major competitors.
