SINGAPORE (Jul 10, 2015) — FCI, a leading supplier of connectors and interconnect systems, is proud to announce the latest Minitek MicroSpace™ 1.27/1.5mm Crimp-to-Wire (CtW) connector. The unique design of Minitek MicroSpace™ 1.27/1.5mm connector enables contact pitch compatibility with the LV214 Severity-2 standard.
Minitek MicroSpace™ 1.27/1.5mm connectors are ideal when high vibration endurance is required. The design features primary and secondary contact retention, Poka-yoke polarization and a visual mismatch prevention system that eliminates application errors. A Terminal Positioning Assurance system allows this solution to be easily and quickly installed.
Addressing the growing demand for miniaturization, this connector’s compact design requires a PCB footprint which is half of the current market offering.
The Minitek MicroSpace™ 1.27/1.5mm contact current carrying capacity is 4A. The external diameter of the cable is up to 1.3mm (22 AWG). The 4N normal force guarantees good resilience against vibration, while the connector locking can withstand 70N force.
