Board-to-board connector RotaConnect™

SMTrectangularthermoplastic

FCI extends the RotaConnect® Board-to-Board range with a pegged version. The pegs aids simple placement. This eliminates the hold-down and hence will help customer save the space between connectors on the PCB. The RotaConnect® BtB range is a unique rotatable Board-to-Board SMT connector that can be used to support perpendicular, coplanar and angled connections, in multiple mating and un-mating directions. The hermaphroditic “mates to itself” design enables mating at any angle between +90° and -60°, enabling the connectors to be placed anywhere on the PCB. This design allows the use of a single part number which will comprise both male and female contacts. The high temperature grade housing material is reflow solder compatible. Tape and reel packaging permits vacuum pick and place application. With this extension, FCI’s RotaConnect® BtB range offers 2 and 4 positions with hold-down and peg options.
