Mezza-pede® low profile 1.0mm pitch SMT
Connectors from Advanced are designed
for board-to-board or cable-to-board applica-
tions where long-term reliability is required.
With Advanced's enclosed screw-machined
socket, 6-finger contact and heavy gold
plating, Mezza-pede Connectors pass
the 20-day mixed flowing gas (MFG) test
required in many telecom and other severe
environment and long-life applications. Our
over-molded lead frame seals the surface
mount leads to prevent solder wicking,
ensuring a secure solder joint. The low
4mm stack height makes it ideal for tight
mezzanine packaging applications.
