The 00-9159 series open-ended Card Edge Connector for use with linear LED strip lighting. AVX was challenged with increasing the pin count density as well as minimizing the size of the existing coplanar BTB card edge connector for linear strip lighting. The current product is a 2mm with single contacts that straddle the PCB to make electrical connection on both the top and bottom side of the board. By simply changing the contacts to a double sided configuration (separate contacts for both the top and bottom of the PCB), AVX was able to double the pin count in the same 2mm pitch with minimal to no impact on the electrical performance of the connector. Reducing the size of the connector required a complete new design as the target was a 4p connector with a total length of 4mm. To achieve this, AVX removed the end walls and then added a centre support/keying rib to pre-align the PCB during mating. This rib the then holds the PCB in the proper functional location.

• Miniaturized size, achieves 1mm in length for each number of contacts (4p=4mm)
• Double ended/double sided contacts for increased pin count density on standard 1.6mm thick PCB's
• Central polarizing/location rib assures proper mating and PCB location
• 3 (4/6) and 2.5A (8p/10p) High current capabilities
• 300VAC Voltage rating
