BCS-138-L-D-HE-033

The BCS-138-L-D-HE-033 Rectangular Connectors is a high-density, low profile, board-to-board and cable-to-board connector system, developed to replace through-hole-mounted connectors in many applications. It is a three-way, male-female-male (M-F-M) connector featuring a small pitch, a 4.2mm centerline, and terminal designs that incorporate an IDC adapter for easy cable-to-pcboard termination. It is available in both right-angle and straight-header versions.

BCS-138-L-D-HE-033 is well suited for applications with space constraints, such as cellular phones, wireless products, and hand held equipment. The connector has been designed to meet the high-density electronic packaging requirements of today\'s electronic marketplace and boasts many features that make it a viable, cost-effective replacement for conventional connector systems.

The connectors have a low profile and feature an integrated reinforcement that is molded in place, resulting in a strong, secure connection between headers. This feature, combined with the angled mounting of the male and female headers, provides maximum stability and resistance to shock and vibration. Dual wire leads are used to make reliable electrical connections. The connector is made of a UL94V-0 rated dielectric material to ensure protection from hazardous radiations and static electricity. The mating area of the connectors is designed to prevent or minimize contact abrasion and shorting.

The header terminals of the BCS-138-L-D-HE-033 Connectors are designed to eliminate the need for additional soldering by utilizing pre-wired connections. Plugs and receptacles are available in both single-row and double-row formats, with a wide variety of lifting and scooping heights available. Receptacles are available with either feed-through or right angle options. The feed-through terminals hold the wire and prevent it from popping out of the connector when unplugging.

The BCS-138-L-D-HE-033 connection system offers many benefits over traditional connectors, including space savings, better electrical performance, and easier installation. The small pitch between the contacts allows greater density when working with higher pin counts, leading to more efficient use of valuable board space. Improved pin contact pressure, fewer points of contact, and fewer solder joints result in improved electrical performance, such as reduced signal crosstalk and fewer contact connection failures. With its easy-to-use IDC adapter, the connector eliminates the need for soldering and reduces assembly time.

The BCS-138-L-D-HE-033 connection system is a reliable, cost-effective product well-suited for a wide variety of applications. It is most commonly used in consumer electronics, communications equipment, computer/peripheral equipment, and industrial/automation systems. Thanks to its small pitch, high density, and efficient use of board space, the BCS-138-L-D-HE-033 is becoming an increasingly popular solution for many system designs.
