XB4B-6035-D Datasheet/PDFThe XB4B-6035-D is a mezzanine board-to-board connector designed to provide an efficient solution for many kinds of connection requirements. The connector provides an intelligent interconnect driven from its edge-type contact for a variety of applicationsc, while meeting industry standard requirements concerning electrical performance, contact current carrying capacity, and mechanical performance. This makes the XB4B-6035-D suitable for applications such as backplanes, computer networks, communications and entertainment equipment, medical electronics, robotics, and just about any system requiring reliable connections.
The XB4B-6035-D is a rectangular connector that is available in two versions—header and receptacle. The header is a plug that consists of a single-piece metal housing and a metal contact. The header is designed to accept a printed circuit board (PCB) for up to 48 pins. The receptacle is a female-operated device that allows the mating of the board-to-board connector. The contact is an insert molded plastic housing and a female contact. The receptacle is designed to accept a board for up to 48 pins.
The XB4B-6035-D is a rectangular array type connector and is configured in such a way that each contact is compatible with industry standard connector systems. The pins are enclosed in a plastic housing attached to a metal housing. The contacts are polarized to prevent misconnection and have a terminal set screw for secure retention to the PCB. The pins are positioned in a vertical or horizontal orientation, depending on the application.
The overall electrical performance of the XB4B-6035-D is such that it meets industry standard requirements. Specifically, the connector can carry up to a maximum contact current of 15A, with a 10A maximum current rating on the input signal pins. The connector is also UL recognized and CSA approved.
The working principle of the XB4B-6035-D is simple. When the header and receptacle are mated, the pins make electrical contact with each other. This enables a signal to pass through the connector from one component to the other. The connector is self-aligning, so there is no need for further alignment when connecting two boards. Additionally, the connector can be used for both hot-swapping and bypassing. This helps reduce the time it takes to configure and maintain a system.
Overall, the XB4B-6035-D is an excellent choice as a board-to-board connector. It offers good electrical and mechanical performance, while being cost-effective. Additionally, it is designed to make connections between different systems a breeze.
