High performance scrub contact technology for Peripheral IC
The Kepler contact technology combines the scrub motion of a cantilever contact with the versatility and modularity of a spring probe. The design includes horizontal movement during the downward stroke of the device to remove surface oxides, provide stable and reliable contact, and cause no damage to the PCB.
