Micro-Lock™ 1.25mm

0.30mm FPC Connector

Description The Micro-Lock™ 1.25mm Wire-to-Board System is available in straight- and right-angle styles for both single and dual rows with a maximum current rating of 1.5A. The damage-proof pin protection feature prevents header pins from being bent or crushed while the wide mating latch with two-point positive lock provides secure mating retention.

A dual contact, right angled non ZIF FPC/FFC connector with a mated height of only 1.00mm and a width of only 2.55mm. The dual contact feature allows the same connector to be used on parallel boards simplifying design and sourcing. The staggered contact design allows for easier soldering and lower cable insertion forces.

Ideal for tight packaging constraints, low-profile SolderRight™ Direct-Solder Terminals enable right-angle connections onto a PCB. Available in multiple terminal / wire size ranges (14 to 28 AWG) and also in a straddle mount version, this product provides an extremely low cost way of connecting wires to a PCB with a very low ‘z’ axis height.

The system is a modular high-current power and signal connector system in a coplanar and right-angle boardto-board orientation. The low profile (10.0mm height) helps to enhance the system airflow within the power system.

EXTreme ZPower™ is a high-current, rigid, board-toboard and wire-to-board mezzanine style interconnect designed to transfer power loads from one PCB to another. The connector is press-fit into the PC base board. The PC top board is then screwed down on top of the EXTreme ZPower connector, forming a high-pressure interface.

EXTreme PowerEdge™ is a one-piece vertical card edge style connector, used with either gold finger pc boards, or as a bus bar interconnect for power supply and power distribution applications. Connectors are available in power only, signal only and power/signal combinations and can be, configured for AC and DC power systems.
