For high-reliability applications, Harwin has
introduced the Datamate L-Tek and J-Tek SMT
connectors, which offer an improved accuracy of
co-planarity in situations requiring horizontal board
mounting. They will be displayed for the first time
at Electronica, Hall B3, stand 349.
The Datamate L-Tek and J-Tek horizontal, surfacemount
male connectors use a new contact system
guaranteeing co-planarity of mould and contact.
They are available in a range of mounting options,
have the ability to withstand very high bending and
shear forces, and can be used reliably with pickand-
place equipment.
Conventionally, horizontal board-mount
connectors employ a straight pin that is bent twice
to produce a horizontal contact, which can make it
difficult to ensure that the component sits squarely
on the board. Moreover, bending the pin
incorrectly may lead to handling problems with
pick-and-place equipment. Datamate L-Tek and JTek
connectors eliminate this hazard by using a
contact system which is pre-stamped, avoiding the
need for bending.
Suited to applications requiring high-reliability
connectors in production volumes, such as highend
industrial equipment, the Datamate L-Tek and
J-Tek Series is are available in both RoHS compliant |
|
RoHScompliant
and non RoHS-compliant versions. The
Series employs a four-finger, beryllium-copper
contact clip, conforms with British Standard 9525-
F0033, and can withstand high levels of shock and
vibration in addition to a large number of mating
cycles, all without loss of performance.
