1.27mm (.050") Pitch SliderZ™ Board-to-Board Connector Hermaphroditic FEATURES AND SPECIFICATIONS SliderZ is a one-piece, board-to-board connector system that uses a “slide” action in the vertical Z-axis to minimize assembly and service costs for mated printed circuit boards (PCBs). SliderZ allows the user to mate or remove one PCB while leaving the adjacent PCB undisturbed. Features and Benefits ■ Innovative “slide” Z-axis mating action enables efficient assembly, servicing and retrofitting of PCBs ■ Hermaphroditic, single-connector system simplifies ordering and reduces inventory costs ■ Guide rails and generous lead-ins help simplify installation and allow Z-axis misalignment of PCBs up to 1.59mm (.062”) for wider assembly tolerances ■ Solder tails of 2.79mm (.110”) length fit in standard 1.59mm (.062”) thick PCBs ■ Press-fit board locks hold down the connector firmly to the PCB during soldering process ■ Optional caps available to protect contacts during shipment and board attachment SliderZ features a hermaphroditic design, so the same connector is used in the mated pair. The connector has a 1.27mm (.050”) pitch centerline spacing and is available in 10 through 60 select circuit sizes for a range of applications. Select-gold plating on the contacts ensures durability up to 1000 mating cycles. Prominent finger pulls allow for ergonomic handling and minimize stress to the board and connector. The versatile SliderZ connector is ideal for low power and signal applications where easy servicing, upgrading or plug-in expansion of PCBs is preferred. 1.27mm (.050") Pitch SliderZ™ Board-to-Board Connector Hermaphroditic Specifications Reference Information Product Specification: PS-44245 Electrical Voltage: 30V Current: 1.5A – 10 circuit 1.25A – All other circuits Contact Resistance: 10 milliohms max.
