EN3 SERIES EXPANDS UP TO 18 PINS

The EN3™ Series is a popular plastic connector series that meets a number of harsh weather envi-ronmental ratings. It’s now available from 2 through 18 pins. The 9-18 pin versions are only available with solder terminals. The solder terminals come in two styles, straight or staggered. The straight style has equal length termi-nals, all facing the same way. The staggered version has the inner set of terminals longer than the outer set. Also, the staggered terminals face radially away from the centre of the connector, to make soldering much easier. The 9-18 versions carry the same envi-ronmental ratings as the 2-8, which include IP66/IP68 and NEMA 250, when mated.

Available in solder terminals only, either straight or staggered for easier soldering. Gold-plated pins and contacts are used to reduce contact resis-tance. For full details, call the INFOLINE on 02 9482 1944.

MICRO-MINIATURE COAX CONNECTORS

With an increasing demand for smaller RF appli-cations, HARWIN have launched a range of Micro-Miniature Coax Connectors (MMCX) ideally suited to densely populated electronic packages. The MMCX series provides significant space sav-ings, while maintaining good RF characteristics /performance.

Cable-to-board and cable-to-cable configura-tions can be accommodated. The non-slotted design and positive snap-fit coupling reduce RF leakage to a minimum and enable a 360° rotation without signal degradation. With a 50 ohm impedance rating and operating between 0 to 6 Ghz, the connectors offer comparable performance to that of much larger coax types.

Typical applications for MMCX connectors include:

• GPS Receivers, Networking,
  
• Telecommunications and consumer Electronics.
  
• Styles available include:
  
• Crimp Straight Plug
  
• Crimp 90° Plug
  
• Bulkhead Jack
  
• Vertical Jack Socket
  
• Horizontal Jack Socket
  
• Straight Jack
