Electronics Interconnect connector InterconnectKYOCERA AVX 9159-650 Series vertical, dual-row, top-entry card-edge connectors provide improved functionality in a broad range of perpendicular, pcb-mating automotive, industrial and lighting applications with harsh operating environments. Device features a high-temperature thermoplastic insulator rated for UL94 V-0 flammability performance and equipped with firm’s robust compression contact system, that employs gold-plated beryllium copper (BeCu) contacts to ensure high-reliability, high-signal-integrity performance in even challenging conditions. Product series is available with four to 12 contacts rated for a full 2.5A each and arranged in a staggered, dual-row configuration that allows for twice the number of contact positions in roughly the same small form factor as the 00-9159 Series. Devices are rated for 300Vac and 10 cycles in operating temperatures extending from -40°C to +125°C.
