The iBridge single-row cable connector system is a compact, economical, wire-to-board interconnect that handles high current density in a small, 2.0-mm-pitch form factor. The rugged, -55° to 125°C connectors, whose contact system does not use a post-bending process to ensure robustness and acceptable coplanarity, can handle 5 A per contact at 20°C.
Male connectors use crimp-and-poke wire terminations and are available in right-angle and vertical configurations with either SMT or DIP termination and two, three, four, five, six, and eight positions. Configured for AWG 22 and 24 wires, female connectors have a tactile-feel dual latching system that produces an audible click when mated. Housings are keyed, and a positive locking feature and inverse bellows design help ensure a reliable interface. Typical pricing for a six,000position vertical DIP connector header is approximately $0.80 in 1,000 quantity, with a lead time of 6-8 weeks.
