Electronics Interconnect connectorHEILIND JAE Electronics AX01 series of high-speed floating type board-to-board connector features a floating structure, which allows movement of plus/minus 0.5 mm in the X and Y direction, as well as large mating guides, which can absorb positional shifts or misalignments that may occur during mounting and assembly. Product’s design allows increased flexibility over conventional rigid-type board-to-board connectors that often have difficulty with alignment when multiple connectors are mounted on the same board. Device is equipped with a two-point contact structure that allows for highly reliable connections, while providing countermeasures against discontinuity caused by foreign objects and flux.
