767143-4

Rectangular Connectors - Arrays, Edge Type, Mezzanine (Board to Board)

767143-4 is a rectangular multi-row connector typically used for board-to-board applications. It is suitable for a wide variety of applications, from automotive electronics and consumer products to medical device designs. This multi-row connector provides reliable, long-term connection between two circuit boards, and its design is highly versatile.

The 767143-4 features an array of contacts arranged in a double row along each edge of the board. It is available in a range of sizes, from two-row to four-row, with various pitches depending on the size. The contact array allows for up to 12 contacts to be connected between the two boards. Each contact comprises a solder tail which mates within a socket on the receiving board. The sockets on any given board are typically arranged in two rows in an alternating pattern, with the center post of the second row straddling the contact of the first row.

The contacts of the 767143-4 are designed for a wide range of power and current levels. Specific versions of the connector have a current rating of up to 5.0A and a voltage rating of up to 3.6kV. The contact material, typically phosphorus bronze, is suitable for applications involving high frequencies and fast signal transmission.

The 767143-4 also features a latch system, making it suitable for applications where quick connection and disconnection is required. The latch mechanism is designed to make a secure connection between the boards, and to make it easier and faster to uncouple the boards when necessary. The latch can also prevent accidental separation of the two boards.

In order to ensure that the 767143-4 provides reliable and consistent electrical connections, an array of contact plating options are available. The plating options range from gold to silver to tin, providing flexibility to ensure that the contacts maintain a high level of electrical conductivity. Additionally, the contacts can be soldered by ultrasonic welding, reducing the chances of any contact failure due to defects with the solder connections.

The 767143-4 is a robust and versatile connector, suitable for a variety of applications. Its reliable contact array and latched mechanism make it an ideal choice for board-to-board applications, while its high current and voltage ratings, and contact plating options, make it suitable for even the most demanding applications.
