Connectors maximise PCB real estate and can achieve overall space savings

HARTING har-flex connectors, available from Mouser, are based on a 1.27mm grid and are offered in four different stack heights with SMT technology to enable designers to bridge PCB distances between 8mm and 13.8mm in mezzanine applications. Featuring high density contact spacing and pin count configurations ranging from 6 to 100 pins in even numbered positions, the connectors maximise PCB real estate and achieve overall space savings. The robust design includes solder hold downs to ensure a reliable connection to the PCB and help absorb stress on the solders contacts resulting from insertion and removal forces. The connectors provide 100 percent coplanarity testing and standard fitting with pick and place pads that guarantee a simple, fully automatic and assembly of the PCBs.
