KYOCERA AVX launched the new 9169-000 Series single-piece wire-to-board card-edge connectors.

The new 9169-000 Series wire-to-board card-edge connectors combine two field-proven solderless contact technologies that make it easy to establish high-integrity connections and deliver excellent electrical and mechanical performance in harsh-environment automotive, transportation, and solid-state lighting, industrial, and consumer electronics applications: insulation displacement contacts (IDCs) for reliable cold-welded, gas-tight wire-to-connector terminations and beryllium copper (BeCu) compression contacts for high-reliability wire-to-board terminations. These new connectors also feature a locating rib for polarization, which prevents PCB insertion errors, and board-locking latches on both sides, which reinforces their mechanical retention strength.

The new 9169-000 Series is available with 2-10 contacts that are on a 2.5mm pitch, equipped with gold or pure tin plating on the nose area, and designed to terminate 22-28AWG solid or stranded wires and 1.6mm-thick PCBs with gold- or tin-plated pads. In terms of performance, it’s rated for 100VACRMS or the DC equivalent, up to 3A for variants with 2-6 contacts (U.S. UL), up to 2A for variants with 7-10 contacts, and 10 cycles in operating temperatures extending from -40°C to +130°C, and it’s also UL approved.
