Hirose has expanded its miniature BM23 series FPC-to-board connector to include a standard signal only version and a hybrid connector version that provides both signal and power contacts. Designed for portable electronic devices that require high transmission speeds and rugged performance, the BM23 series connector features a miniature design that offers significant space-savings in digital […]
Molex acquires assets of Triton Manufacturing
Molex, the global manufacturer of interconnect products and systems, announced the acquisition of certain assets of Triton Manufacturing Company, headquartered in Monee, Ill. The acquired Triton business specializes in fabricating flexible power cable assemblies and custom bus bars used in a wide range of current and heat transfer applications, including power transfer devices for computers, […]
Industrial connectors protect sensitive electronics
In addition to energy and data, highly automated production plants require the reliable and powerful transmission of signals from measuring, control and regulation devices and systems. Minimal downtimes are a decisive factor in the profitability of production plants, according to engineers at HARTING, Espelkamp, Germany. And unpredictable failures, for example due to negligence, fire or […]
ERNI connectors for industrial drives and controllers
Industrial automation requires constant, reliable connectivity for high-vibration environments. Miniaturization is also a challenge for interconnect designs, but it does not imply foregoing electromechanical reliability and mating integrity to achieve density and space savings, according to officials at ERNI Electronics, Richmond, Va. Connectors with a contact pitch of 1.27 mm (0.050 in.) or less are […]
Powerful D-subs from In2Connect
D-sub connectors were arguably the first and most widely established in/out (I/O) interface connector, according to officials at In2Connect UK Ltd., based in Ropley, Hampshire. The connectors are so-called because of their trapezoidal (vaguely “D” shaped) shell which provides mechanical protection, shielding and built-in polarization when mating male to female, whether cable-end or panel mounted. […]
Simple adapter converts straight connectors to angles
The ibow angle adapter from igus Inc., East Providence, R.I., converts straight, round connectors to angled ones. It reportedly permits fast, easy and safe connection of circular connectors at a user-defined angle. The product lets workers plug in connectors “around corners” quickly and flexibly, according to the company. And it is also suited for retrofit […]
Mencom introduces low-profile housings for panel interface connectors
Mencom has introduced new low-profile enclosures for Panel Interface Connectors (PIC). The PIC, also known as programming ports or programming interfaces, provides the ability to communicate with a device inside a cabinet without opening the cabinet door. This helps prevent potential safety hazards (such as Arc Flash) associated with opening an electrical panel. Utilizing a […]
Floating 3-piece mezzanine connector from Hirose supports high-speed transmission up to 15 Gbps
Hirose has launched an SMT board-to-board connector that uses a unique 3-piece floating contact system to simplify assembly and support high-speed transmission capability up to 15 Gbps. Designed for high-speed transmission applications that require multiple stacking connectors on the same PCB, the 0.5-mm pitch FX10-3 series connector is the latest addition to Hirose’s FunctionMax family. […]
PushPull connection to PCB saves on assembly time
HARTING’s M12 PCB angled D coded with PushPull is now available for direct transmission from the cable to the printed circuit board. The M12 PCB connection is now also equipped with the fast, time-saving PushPull system. In the future, it will no longer require more space for the attachment of tools. Simply insert it and a […]
