Nano-Fit Power Connectors
Power-application customers are faced with choosing between headers with exposed terminals that leave connectors susceptible to damage and large, fully isolated headers that take up too much space. Compact Nano-Fit Power Connectors provide design engineers with fully protected header terminals in a small package.
When design engineers use multiple headers with the same circuit size on one PCB, assembly becomes complicated due to possible mis-mating of a receptacle with the wrong header. Nano-Fit Power Connectors offer different mechanical keying options, enabling customers to reduce the risk of cross-mating while improving assembly speed with color-coding logic.
Features and Benefits
-
The smallest, fully-isolated headers in the market
Deliver up to 69% PCB space savings
-
Optional TPA (Terminal Position Assurance) retainer
Ensures terminals are fully seated in the housing to reduce terminal back-out
Retains terminals if main retention feature fails -
Positive-lock housing with anti-snag design
Ensures mated connector assemblies will not accidentally disengage
Provides an audible click while mating
Protects latch from damage due to wire snags -
Terminal interface with four points of contact
Offers redundant, secondary current paths for long-term performance and reliability
-
SMT version enables use of multi-layer boards by eliminating the need for through holes
Opens up real estate on space-constricted PCBs
Potentially reduces costs by enabling use of smaller PCBs with fewer drilled holes -
Terminals and headers available in gold and tin plating
Delivers different cost options while meeting performance need
-
Multiple mechanical keying and color-coded options
Allow same-circuit, multiple-connector use with virtually no chance of cross mating
Color coding provides visual indication of the proper mating connector — enabling faster assembly -
Ultra-low mate force terminal
Reduces operator fatigue and improves assembly compliance for high-circuit applications
-
Fully isolated terminals
Protect against potential damage of the header and receptacle terminals during handling and mating
-
Retention tang and contact rib
Maintains stable contact
-
SMT headers provide short electrical paths
Deliver superior signal integrity performance
