HIROSE Electric Co. Ltd, a world-class manufacturer in connectors, introduced the FX23/FX23L series to meet the requirements for floating connectors that can handle high current ratings and high-speed transmission.
The connector range consists of headers and receptacles that allow a parallel or right angle board-to-board connection. The FX23L series is the lower profile version of the FX23 series.
The header has a unique floating structure embedded inside the fixed base of the housing. This allows an alignment movement in XY directions of +/- 0.6 mm (max) to absorb mounting misalignment.
The FX23 series high speed transmission of up to 8 Gbps+ (max) is supported by the innovative contact design to ensure impedance-matching. The ground contacts are situated between the adjacent differential pair contacts to reduce crosstalk for better performance.
The connector has a hybrid structure featuring power and signal contacts. Four built-in power contacts that can carry up to 3A current rating each are located alongside the mating guides to save space. The signal contacts can carry 0.5A each. Furthermore, mating alignment is provided, with large guide posts to increase mating performance.
In addition, this series can withstand temperature ranges of up to 105°C; with this heat resistance capability the connector satisfies the needs of severe automotive requirements.
FX23/FX23L series is part of the FunctionMAX product family. FunctionMAX consists of board-to-board connectors designed to meet the requirements of the industrial market with maximum functionality.
