PMC Mezzanine Connectors
The IEEE 1386 standard contains the details for adding standardized PCI mezzanine cards (PMC) to VMEbus and Multibus host boards. There are also many LAN, WAN, telecommunications, PC and workstation users who want a standardized mezzanine scheme and see the IEEE 1386 as the best approach. The fully shrouded leaf-style design minimizes the chance of damaging plug contacts. Our receptacle contacts feature a low mating force that reduces PCB stress. Gold over Nickel contact plating enhances long-term reliability, while the UL94V-0 LCP housings withstand SMT reflow processes and are RoHS compliant. Excellent tolerance absorption allows the connector to be used in combinations of one to four mated pairs for up to 256 circuits.

The connector design is hard-metric, easy-mating, robust, surface-mounted and features high circuit density, with excellent electrical performance. Along with that, it comes in a range of stacking heights from 8.00 through 15.00mm (.315 through .591") for optimizing system function. The connectors are available in tubes or embossed-tape packaging for automatic pick-and-place capability.
