Product Features The mechanical function of the new DLP ZIF connector A quarter turn of knob (shaft) mates all the contact at once by the function of cam and bearing. Bearing Plug side PCB Cam shaft Contact Our DLP connector uses our landed contact system. Modules of 34 or 68 contacts each are populated in to the receptacle to the customer’s requirements. These contacts are positioned to land on pads that are designed into the customer supplied PCB and mounted to the plug connector housing. When mated, the contacts do not touch the pads on the plug PCB. Once the handle is rotated and locked,...
