100669-1

Hard metric backplane connectors such as the 100669-1 are interoperable solutions that comply with industrial standards worldwide, so they can be used in a wide variety of global applications. These backplane connectors are used in high density, high speed applications where data transmission needs to be done with minimal signal impediments or latency. Hard metric connectors have closely spaced pins that allow for tight pitch connections and secure, snug connections.The 100669-1 connector has standard features which includes two rows of two-piece hardened contacts located on a single side printed circuit board, four positions, zero insertion force connectivity, and two-piece latching. It is a 40 o.d. pitch connector, which means that the contact densities and the electrical performance are high. It is also RoHS compliant and UL recognized. The maximum number of pins used is up to four, but the number of pins is customizable.The working principle of the 100669-1 backplane connector is simple and straightforward. The two-piece contacts are formed with the use of gold-plated copper and the contact area is designed for precise engagement. The two piece contacts provide secure latching and are constructed so that they resist binding during insertions and extractions. When a correct insertion is made, pushes the contact open and forms a latched connection, making it possible for the user to easily make the connection. In order to ensure the reliability and integrity of the connections, the contacts are pre-plated with Nickel and Gold for wear and corrosion protection. The contacts are designed with a square-cut pattern that provides excellent conductivity, and also supports added impedance control. They also provide a secure, durable and reliable connection that meets industrial compliance standards.The 100669-1 backplane connector also has an improved design that increases the EMC performance of the connector, as well as reduces the impedance mismatch. Additionally, the contact points are all in line with the connection, so no contact readjustments are necessary.In addition to the 100669-1 connector, there are several other types of hard metric backplane connectors available. These include the M3ug16.0Ti, M3JW1.5Ti and M3LCZ.0Ti, among others. Each type has different features depending on the application that it is intended for, but they all feature extremely high contact densities, close pitch connections and secure latching. Furthermore, they all meet the highest industrial standards, ensuring that they can be used in any application possible. Hard metric backplane connectors such as the 100669-1 are designed to meet the highest quality standards, and are built to last. They provide engineers with secure and reliable connections, while helping to reduce impedance mismatch and EMC performance issues. With backplane connectors now becoming essential components for many electronic designs, these types of connectors are certainly worth exploring and considering.
