2008.3
■Overview
Developed as input/output connectors for use in portable
devices requiring reliable high durability connection.
■Features
1. Small size
With a width of 5 mm and 2.4 mm height above the mounting
surface the connectors may be used in applications where
board and volume space is restricted.
2. Strong construction
Single piece shell increases the board retention and resists
rotational forces encountered in demanding consumer
environment
3. High durability
Unique lock latches will maintain high retention force (plug
with corresponding receptacle) up to 10,000 cycles,
confirming fully mated condition with a distinctive tactile
“click” sensation.
4. ESD protection
Increased distance from the edge of the metal shell to the
front of the contacts offers circuit protection from electrostatic
discharge.
5. RoHS compliant
All components and materials comply with the requirements
of EU Directive 2002/95/EC
■Applications
DSC, PDA, notebook computers, mobile phones and other
portable devices requiring high durability interface connectors.
