QMS-052-02-SL-D-RA-PC8

The QMS-052-02-SL-D-RA-PC8 is a type of rectangular connector belonging to the Arrays, Edge Type, Mezzanine (Board to Board) category. It is a mechanically robust and reliable edge card connector designed to meet industry-standard I/O channel access requirements.

The edge card connector consists of a vertical board assembly with an array of standard edge guides, a row of double-sided contacts, a number of support columns and a contact guide. The board assembly features a surface-mount application area to facilitate swift and accurate implementation without any soldering. Hence, this connector is ideal for automation-intensive deployments.

This type of QMS-052-02-SL-D-RA-PC8 connector is well-suited for applications requiring a fast and reliable data transmission between two circuit boards at a high rate. It has a good bridging capacity and is compatible with various types of signal transmission such as HDMI, DVI, and USB.

In terms of working principle, this connector is activated when the two circuit boards are mated together, and contact points are pressed against each other. The edge guide is activated when the contacts are pushed together, which in turn establishes a reliable connection. The edge guide of the connector warranties a tight and secure mating of the two boards, which prevents any loose connection. The contact guide provides for an appropriate depth of contact insertion and thus, prevents any undesired contact of the two boards.

Furthermore, this type of edge card connector has the added benefit of reducing EMI/RFI interference which is usually observed when using point-to-point connectors. It also helps in optimizing the performance of the interconnect system.

To conclude, the QMS-052-02-SL-D-RA-PC8 edge card connector is a highly-reliable connector ideal for data transmission between two circuit boards at a high rate. Its working principle is based on having the two boards mated together which activates the edge guide and contact guide for a secure and reliable connection. This connector’s ability to reduce EMI/RFI interference and its relatively easy installation are some of its key advantages.
