AXK8L12125BG

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

AXK8L12125BG is a mezzanine board-to-board connector that uses separately mated plug and socket strips as the mating components. The plug represents mating along the edge of the board, and the connectors are available in low-temperature plastic molding options. The design is provided with mechanical lancing and bending for secure board retention.

Application Field

AXK8L12125BG is used in a wide variety of applications including consumer electronics, medical devices, IoT solutions, communication and networking devices, and military/aerospace applications. The connector is used for linking boards and other components in consumer electronics, medical devices, and in many other applications. They are also used for connecting boards or PCBs in network devices such as switches and routers, industrial automation systems, and power control systems.

Working Principle

The working principle of AXK8L12125BG is that it uses spring loaded contacts to mate and provide a secure electrical connection. There are three types of contacts available on this connector: insulated sockets, shielded pins, and straight pins. Each contact has its own specific purpose. The insulated sockets provide insulation between the pins and socket, the shielded pins provide noise reduction, and the straight pins are for power and signal connection.

To assemble the connector, the contacts are soldered onto the board using standard soldering techniques. Once the contact is in place, the plug is then aligned with the socket and slid into place. The plug also has a latching mechanism that locks the connector into place. Once the connector is securely locked, the mating contacts are in place.

AXK8L12125BG offers robust design features and low profile design to support applications that may require a variety of trace routing options. The connector also features a 2-row array with specified current ratings for different application requirements.
