The versatile FunctionMAX board-to-board connector family specializes in floating alignment capability and/or high-speed transmission and are available in various configurations including: vertical/mezzanine, right angle/riser card and coplanar.
Beneficial when using multiple connectors on the same PCB, the innovative floating structures in selected connectors allow a degree of play between contacts during mating, and are now able to absorb alignment errors. Ensuring correct and safe mating, the floating contacts self-center in both the X and Y directions. This also eliminates stress imparted by mounting placement errors, educing the stress on mounted parts significantly. This decreases solder cracking and enhances reliability.
The connectors are well-suited for use in medical devices, office imaging equipment, measurement equipment, industrial computer systems, automotive navigation and audio systems, broadcast equipment, base station transceivers, industrial machinery and more.
