| | | ERNI Pre-Alignment modules The alignment modules were developed to securely connect the daughter card to the backplane. The modules also offer integrated support for HM coding pieces. Coding at the connector is no longer required, and more signal contacts are available as a result. For an even more stable and "capacitive" coding, there are guide pins designed that match the hole in the counterpiece. This provides an additional eight different codings, such as an octagonal version. Another auxiliary function is the version featuring an electrical contact. The gold-plated contact surfaces make for low-resistance shielding, and for transmitting current over a large cross section with up to 40 A at 20 °C. | | MaxiBridge™ The 2.54 mm single row cable connector system is ideally suitable for high reliable and space saving connections between PCBs and decentral units, e.g. lamps or info-panels, front plate elements like buttons, switches, fuses or LEDs, motors, fans etc. The cable system can be used in different applications, for example: automotive , telecom, industrial, medical or even consumer electronics. Thanks to the availability of vertical and right angle male connectors and female connectors with 180° cable outlet the system can be used in a versatile manner. Emphasis is put on flexibility of the usable cable sizes. Thus the required current carrying capacity can be adjusted over a wide range. | | Single row connector (SRC) MaxiBridge | | |
| | | The large pin diameter allows for a capture range of > 2 mm. The threaded guide pin is attached to the backplane, and can be ordered for circuit-board thicknesses ranging from 2.5 to 6 mm, and from 6 to 8 mm. The guide socket is mounted to the daughter card with an M4 or an M5 screw. The circuit board thickness for the daughter card can be 1.6 to 3.5 mm, or 3.5 to 5.5 mm. | | | The male connector provides SMT-terminals and the female connector has contact cavities according to the crimp contacts. The plastic material used is suitable for lead-free reflow soldering. Tape-and-Reel packaging and pick and place pad for fully automatic assembly is a standard. The crimp contacts are secured twice and reach highest retention forces. There are 4 mechanical and different coloured coding versions with high blocking forces against mismating. Cable and male connector have a locking system which prevents the connection from loosening due to vibration. The cable connector can be removed without an additional tool. | | |
