FEATURES AND SPECIFICATIONS Z-Power is a high-current, rigid, board-to-board and wire-to-board mezzanine style interconnect designed to transfer power loads from one PCB to another Z-Power connectors utilize a unique, dual interface which results in long-term reliability. The Z-Power connector allows 50.0A to be carried between parallel boards in 0.232 in2, with less than .020 milliohms initial plane-to-plane resistance. The Z-Power connector is press-fit into the PC base board. The PC top board is then screwed down on top of the Z-Power connector, forming a high-pressure interface. A unique, dual Hertzian contact design allows the screw to be installed without affecting the compliant-pin interface in the opposing PCB. The rigid nature of this interconnect allows high-density PCB applications to benefit from real-estate savings, by employing Z-Power in a dual role. Z-Power performs as both a high-reliability power connector and a durable stand-off, relieving the need for separate mechanical stand-offs in some applications. Z-Power™ Connector 10.30mm (.405”) Parallel Board Spacing Mezzanine, Board-to-Board and Wire-to-Board Applications 76001 Z-Power can also be used as an efficient, wire-to-board connector. This application is achieved through using standard wire-crimp, ring-lug terminals as the mating interface to the Z-Power screw-down terminal interface. Features and Benefits n 50.0 and 30.0A versions available to cover a variety of applications n Patented internal terminal design relieves stress on press-fit pins from shock and vibration n Low contact resistance is ideal for high-current applications n Captured internal nut provides for ease of assembly n Compliant-pin interface provides a solderless termination n Board-to-board or wire-to-board interface provides flexible design options n Rigid, screw-down interface ensures a highpressure, reliable contact SPECIFICATIONS Reference Information Packaging: Tray UL File No.: 1792321 Designed In: Millimeters Mechanical Insertion Force to PCB: 9.07N (20lbf) per tail Recommended Torque: 0.75 N-m (6.6 Inch-lbs) Durability: 5 cycles mate/un-mate (bolt interface) Electrical Voltage: 600V Current at 30°C 10 Circuit - 50.0A 6 Circuit – 30.0A Contact Resistance: Beginning of Life: 10 Circuit 0.18 milliohms max. 6 Circuit 0.30 milliohms max.
