Right-angle header connector makes for compact harness designs

June 28, 2013 By Mary Gannon Leave a Comment

Molex Inc., Lisle, Ill., has expanded its CMC product line with the introduction of a 28-circuit, right-angle header, which mates with its 28-circuit female power connector to offer automotive harness makers a complete, space-saving, wire-to-board solution for sealed transportation applications requiring up to 21.0 A.

Designed to perform in high-conductivity applications and harsh environments (10 g, IP6K7, IP6K9K and –40 to 125°C), the modular, hybrid connection is often considered an industry standard interface used in automotive and transportation power train applications, including engine-control units (ECUs), compartment applications, gear boxes, electronic parking brakes and suspension controllers together with body electronics applications in automotive and commercial vehicles. With this new header, harness makers can now meet more challenging space requirements, such as those found on motorcycle ECUs.

Specific to this design is its hybrid terminal combination, which include 18x CP 0.635-mm, 5x CP 1.50-mm and 5x CP 2.80-mm solder-mount terminals for space saving options.
