Kyocera AVX 917X series of surface mount IDK

The 917X series of surface mount Insulation Displacement Connectors (IDC) were developed to meet the harsh requirements of automotive and industrial applications. This industry proven series of connectors provides a robust, reliable, and efficient method to connect individual wires ranging from 12AWG to 30AWG directly to a PCB. The single contact design can function as a standalone component. It provides our designers access to IDC technology in an easy-to-use form factor allowing them to bring power and signal to a PCB in a wide range of applications. These connectors have been tested to various levels of shock, vibration, and temperature cycling to prove their reliability and robustness.

The 9176-700 series moves beyond the technical and performance attributes of our previous IDC connectors and enhances the “user friendliness” for terminating from 18AWG to 24 AWG wires. The simplicity of inserting a wire into an SMT contact with the integrated retention or termination cap, provides a wire to board solution without soldering or special tools. The wire is inserted into the cap (no stripping required) and then pressed down to provide a secure “gas tight” termination. 

Features

• IDC contact provides a gas-tight connection to the PCB for long term reliability
• Plastic cap retains the contacts in position prior to automatic placement, then acts as the assembly tool to terminate the wires; no special tooling
• Tested to various levels of shock, vibration, and temperature cycling for reliability
• Identical contact and footprint pattern to the existing 9176 for full backwardcompatibility and functionality
• The IDC contact reduces the total applied cost versus solder or crimp processes
• Connectors are available in two configurations for maximum flexibility; end and through wire 

Applications

• Connecting discrete wire components to a PCB
• Bringing power and signals onto a PCB
• Daisy chaining PCB’s together to create a continuous string
