Vertical Top Entry Card Edge: BTB
00-9159
AVX continues to develop unique connectors to fill the gap in the
industrial market, specifically as it relates to low pin count requirements.
The newest addition to AVX’s broadening line of one piece card edge
connectors is the 2p-6p top entry version which complements the
bottom entry version released last year. This new configuration will allow
small perpendicular daughter cards to be plugged in from the top side of
the main board. The single connector option offers an alternative to the
more traditional and costly two piece solution.
This small connector is packed with several key features that provide
significant functionality in a broad range of robust industrial applications.
The contact system is gold plated for enhanced reliability, signal integrity
and full 2A/contact current rating. The PCB board opening is dual slotted
to accept either a 0.8mm or 1.6mm thick daughter card within the same
connector body.
