Fine-pitch board-to-board connector is hermaphroditic

For parallel stacking of printed circuit boards, the 0.5-mm, fine pitch hermaphroditic (FPH) board-to-board connector is robust, yet economical compared to conventional stacking connectors which require separate plugs and receptacles. It helps consolidate connector selection, reduce component engineering and part maintenance costs, and eliminate material scrap on the factory floor.

The connector is designed to withstand 50 mating cycles in environment, with a maximum mating force of 42g per contact pair. It handles a maximum of 0.5 A per contact, has a maximum contact resistance of 30 mΩ, is rated for 50 V, and has a dielectric withstanding voltage 500 V. The connector is available with or without locating posts and reflow solder capable to 245°C or 260°C.
