SMT Connectors Suited for High Reliability Applications


The Mezza-pede 1.0 mm SMT connectors are designed for 1.0 mm pitch micro board-to-board and flex cable-to-board applications. The screw-machined, low profile Mezza-pede connector system is especially suited for high reliability applications. With a mated height of only 4.0 mm, Mezza-pede connectors are suitable for mezzanine board applications where z-axis space is a constraint. The patented pin and lead frame design is fully surface mountable and features screw-machined terminals with multi-finger contacts with a per contact current rating of greater than 1 Amp @ 80°C. An over-molded lead frame seals the surface mount pins to prevent solder wicking and ensures a solid solder joint at the PCB level.
