Molex Sentrality high-current pin and socket interconnect system
Molex announces 203263 series
Sentrality Right-Angle Pin and Socket Interconnects enable co-planar, offset-planar and reverse-planar mating configurations, while providing a +/- 1.00mm self-aligning feature on the socket assemblies to mitigate tolerance stack-up issues. With Sentrality pin and socket assemblies, manufacturers can have the design flexibility they need and achieve high electrical performance in their products.
Features
- Enables for tighter board-to-board stack heights with shorter socket assemblies than most market equivalents using hyperbolic sockets
- This interconnect system has a compact conical socket design.
- Allows the socket to freely move radially +/- 1.00mm within the socket assembly during mating to help ensure no contact beam deformation
- Its self-aligning sockets float between wave springs.
- Offers design flexibility for attaching pins to various substrates
- The screw-mount pins attach to both printed circuit boards (PCBs) and busbars; the surface-mount pins attach to printed circuit boards; the knurled press-fit pins attach to busbars.
- Mitigates tolerance stack-up issues
- Pin and socket assemblies are oriented to attach to PCBs with a right-angle orientation.
- Allows manufacturing flexibility when attaching the connectors to a PCB
- These are wave solder process- and reflow solder process-capable connectors.
- Ensures the right-angle socket assemblies and right-angle pin assemblies are placed in the correct position and are properly oriented on the PCB
- Unique solder tail patterns for each size and gender polarizes the connectors' PCB footprints.
