BOARD TO BOARD CONNECTORS
MEZZOSTAK™ 0.5MM MEZZANINE CONNECTORS
Hermaphroditic, “mates-to-itself” design improves business
DESCRIPTION
Robust 0.5mm fine pitch mezzanine connector
suitable for a wide range of high reliability
applications and demanding environments.
Innovative hermaphroditic design provides a
precise mating interface with extra housing
guidance.
Reduced product mix simplifies customer
connector qualification, documentation and
maintenance.
Two versions offer a choice between supple-
mental PCB hold-downs and pegs or short
overall length.
Dual-point mating
Guidance Scoops
FEATURES & BENEFITS
Hermaphroditic design “mates to itself”
• Consolidates connector selection and documentation
• Reduces Component Engineering costs
Easy, Reliable Mating
• Guidance “scoops” permit easy mating when mis-aligned
• Polarization prevents mis-mating
• Dual-point, long wipe contacs
High un-mating force insures connection security
Extreme operating temperature range assures reliable
performance between -40 and 125 degrees C.
Precise 0.08mm maximum SMT lead co-planarity eases
attachment of connector leads to PCBs
Footprint compatible with major competitors.
High Speeds, including PCIe®G2, supported by signal integrity
reports and S-parameter models
0.5mm high density contact pitch in two rows
• 7 Stack heights: 4mm to 7mm (0.5mm increments)
• 6 Sizes: 20 to 70 positions (10 position increments)
