SSL - Top Load Socket Series 9159 The 9159 series of Board-to-Board interconnect system allows two PCB's to be mated end-to-end creating strips of LED lighting. Designed specifically for the unique Solid State Lighting (SSL) market requiring coplanar (horizontal-to-horizontal) PCB mating with a 5 Amp current rating in the smallest package available. The top loading socket allows complete PCB’s to be replaced in the field without having to dissemble the entire strip of boards. The connector has a two part insulator whereby the top of the connector will slide open allowing the plug connector to be pulled out either vertically or at a slight angle. Once the PCB is replaced, the cover is slid back like a Zero Insertion Force (ZIF) connector to the closed position. The PCB layout is identical to the standard horizontal socket to maintain family commonality at the PCB level. Additional components in the 9159 product family include: • SSL - Horizontal Plug; Standard 2-Piece solution (10-9159) • SSL - Cabled Plug; Supports wire-to-board applications (11-9159) • SSL - Horizontal Socket; Standard 2-Piece solution (20-9159) • SSL - Shorting Socket; Two position (58-9159) • SSL - Retaining Clip; Latches BTB connectors together (80-9159) APPLICATIONS FEATURES AND BENEFITS • Coplanar PCB mating in SSL products • LED linear lighting strips • Application Notes; refer to 201-01-123 • Slide open top; allows field reparability at the light fixture level • Mates with standard horizontal or cabled plug; no need to change any connectors • 5 Amp current rating; exceeds general market needs • Gold plated BeCu spring contacts; reliability for harsh environments • Available in white; supports SSL market preferences ELECTRICAL ENVIRONMENTAL MECHANICAL • Current Rating: 5 Amps / Contact • Voltage Rating: 125 VAC • Operating Temperature: -40ºC to +125ºC • • • • Insulator Material: Nylon: VL94VO Contact Material: BeCu / Phos Bronze Plating: Gold / Tin over Nickel Durability: 10 Cycles HOW TO ORDER 22 9159 XXX 1 01 Prefix Series Number of Ways 2 Part PCB Strip Connector Connector Pitch 01 = 3mm Socket Top Loading 24 No of Code Ways 002 2 003 3 004 4 005 5 006 6 Details Page 25 Page 26 Page 27 Page 28 Page 29 X 16 Color Options Code Color 0 Black 1 White Application Industrial Lighting Plating Option Code Contact Bracket 16 Gold in Contact Area Tin Tin on Solder Tail all over SSL - Top Load Socket Series 9159 SOCKET TOP LOADING 2 WAY 2 PART PCB STRIP CONNECTOR NOTES: 1.
