Amphenol FCI (ACS) Minitek Headers

Amphenol FCi Minitek Headers for Pin-in-Paste (PiP) processes offer versatile 2.00mm pitch board-to-board and cable/wire-to-board connectivity. The Minitek headers are designed for seamless integration into Surface-Mount Technology (SMT) manufacturing through PiP soldering. This technology enables the placement and soldering of Through-Mount Technology (TMT) components alongside SMT parts in a single reflow process, optimizing assembly efficiency. The unshrouded headers operate within a temperature range from -55°C to +125°C, while the shrouded headers operate within a temperature range from -40°C to +125°C. Typical applications include medical and industrial. 

Features

  • 38% less board space
  • Helps with automatic placement
  • Makes the cleaning of the PCB easy
  • Offers four smooth mating surfaces
  • Withstands the reflow soldering process

Applications

  • Industrial and instrumentation
  • Medical
