Lighting Connector Products

Filter

• Family
  The family which the part belongs to: Board to Board or Wire Trap

  • Board to Board Connector4
• Pitch
  Distance between connector pin centrelines. For dual row products pitch defines distance between both pins and rows. Note 0.8 x 1.2mm (0.31” x .047”) is the exception to this rule.

  • 2.54mm4
  • 4.00mm
• Gender
  Male headers with exposed pins and female sockets with insulated non-exposed contacts.

  • Header3
  • Socket1
• Mount Type
  Termination method of soldering connector onto PCB.

  • Surface mount5
  • Through hole4
• PCB Orientation
  Defines the orientation which a connector sits on the PCB. Vertical (straight) is 90° to the PCB, right angle (horizontal) is 180° to the PCB. Use the appropriate mating connector pairs for parallel, co-planar and right angle PCB mating configuration.

  • Right angle2
  • Straight
  • U-Shaped2
• Socket Contact Type
  Socket contact type", "Searches female connectors only. Two contact types: ‘Leaf Spring’ and ‘Tuning Fork’, both offer two points of contact with mating header pins. ‘Tuning Fork’ is the lower cost option, with higher insertion and extraction force, suitable only for top entry applications. ‘Leaf Spring’ is lower force contact and suitable for top, bottom & dual entry applications. For higher number of mating cycles choose ‘Leaf Spring’.

  • Leaf spring contact
  • Tuning fork contact1
• Profile
  The profile of connectors above the PCB. Vertical connectors denote the stacking profile in parallel PCB applications, right angle connectors denotes height above the PCB.

  • 1.00mm to 1.99mm
  • 2.00mm to 2.99mm4
  • 3.00mm to 3.99mm
  • 4.00mm to 4.99mm
  • Over 5.00mm
• Insulator Colour
  Standard board to board connector range is black, white insulators used for White Lite range for Solid State Lighting (SSL) applications.
