FX8C-100/100S11-SVJ(71)

The FX8C-100/100S11-SVJ(71) is an excellent example of a rectangular connector, part of the Arrays, Edge Type, Mezzanine (Board to Board) class. This type of connector, also referred to as a board-to-board connector, is used to connect two printed circuit boards (PCBs) together in a relatively small space at relatively high speeds. The FX8C-100/100S11-SVJ(71) is specifically designed to meet the increasingly complex and demanding requirements of applications in the medical, communications, instrumentation, and industrial automation markets.

The advantage of using a rectangular connector in a mezzanine application lies in the fact that it can be easily soldered or plugged into the PCBs, making the entire assembly process faster and easier. Unlike other connector types, the design of the FX8C-100/100S11-SVJ(71) allows for the use of either single or multiple conductive traces. This allows for greater flexibility when connecting two PCBs together as the multiple conductive traces can be individually assigned to different functions without having to resort to complex wiring solutions.

The FX8C-100/100S11-SVJ(71) is available in a variety of sizes, from .020 through .100 inches. It also features several versions: straight, right-angle, and double-sided. The straight version can be used in applications where two PCBs need to be connected directly , while the right-angle version can be used when more space is needed for components on one or both PCBs. The double-sided version of the connector can be used to make a complete connection between two PCBs without any additional components.

The primary function of the FX8C-100/100S11-SVJ(71) is to transfer electrical signals and power from one PCB to another. This is accomplished by two metal strips, called contacts, which run down the length of the connector. When two PCBs are connected, the contacts come together, making a connection between the two boards. This connection is then secure enough to be used in high-speed applications. The contacts can be made from a variety of materials, such as steel, brass, copper, and aluminum.

The FX8C-100/100S11-SVJ(71) is also designed to be highly reliable and secure. It features a self-latching system, which automatically locks the connector into place after it has been connected. This ensures that the connection remains secure and prevents the connection from becoming loose. Furthermore, the contacts are designed to be low in resistance, which reduces the amount of heat generated during the transfer of electricity from one board to the other.

The FX8C-100/100S11-SVJ(71) is a highly versatile and robust board-to-board connector that is ideal for a variety of applications. Its unique features make it an ideal choice for high-speed applications, such as medical, communications, instrumentation, and industrial automation. In these applications, the connector’s low resistance, self-latching system, and multiple contact configurations make it a reliable and secure choice. Additionally, its design allows for easy assembly, making it an excellent choice for designers who are looking for a robust, reliable board-to-board connector.
