AXE518127

The AXE518127 connector is an array of edge type mezzanine connectors used to join printed circuit boards. It is designed with two electronic board connectors that can plug and mate with each other. The two board connectors\' spacing is 0.190 inches apart. The connection using AXE518127 is used to link two separate boards for transmitting energy or signals. The connectors meet or exceed the performance requirements as defined in IEC 60512-10 Electrical Connection, Connectors and Sockets.

Application Field

The AXE518127 are suitable for use in various applications including LCD and plasma display monitors, laser printers, copiers, medical imaging, industrial control, communications equipment, and consumer electronics. This type of connector is an ideal solution to achieve a compact footprint and create a durable and reliable connection between two boards. The metals used in this connector are composed of tin-plated copper alloy.

Working Principle

The connectors have a thick Hard Metric (HM) compliant solderable interface that allow them to be robustly secured to the hosts PCB through soldering. The connectors can be mounted to both the topside and bottom side surfaces of PCB, as the on-board assembly allows for the parts to be installed on either side. The connectors have pre-assembled, reusable clear housing that allows easy line-up of connectors and they can accommodate up to 150 contacts in two rows. The internal nuts and threads facilitate easy line up and maintenance.

The AXE518127 connector features two board connectors and two ground plate assemblies that are assembled in-line and provide a stable electrical interconnection between boards. The board connectors have an ergonomic lip and a solid, two-piece housing with fasteners that provide secure retention. The boards are interconnected through internal press-fit pins, which slide into the receptacle of the mating side connector. The press-fit pins are plated with nickel for improved contact integrity and durability. The engaged connectors are then secured with guide slots and locking screws, which are used to ensure a secure electrical connection.

The AXE518127 connector is an ideal choice for a wide variety of applications with its superior electrical performance, robust design, and reliable connection. The connector is RoHS compliant and has passed UL and CSA safety certification tests. The rated current is up to 1A per contact and the rated voltage is 250VAC/RMS. The operating temperature range for this connector is from -55°C to +105°C.
