Molex Micro-Fit+ Connectors

Molex Micro-Fit+ Connectors are wire-to-board systems with a 3mm pitch, a maximum current rating of 13A, and superior design options for flexibility and efficient assembly. The Molex Micro-Fit+ connector system includes a variety of specialized cables, terminals, and headers and wire housing. These connectors feature a unique design that simplifies assembly and reduces operator fatigue compared to standard Micro-Fit 3.0 connectors. The Micro-Fit+ connectors offer flexibility in PCB design, with clip and nail SMT options available for improved strength and reliability. The Micro-Fit+ PCIe 5.0 connectors offer full CEM specification compliance in a compact, space-saving design with hybrid power and signal integration. These connectors support medical, telecommunications, networking, and automotive applications.

As you get older, it may become more difficult opening that pickle jar or slipping into your tennis shoes. But now, thanks to an enhanced terminal position assurance design, you’ll never have a problem assembling electrical connectors. Molex Micro-Fit+ Connectors enhance ergonomics and assembly efficiency by reducing mating force by up to 40%, thereby reducing operator fatigue. A compact design combines power and signal terminals in wire-to-board systems with a 3mm pitch that fully isolates contacts on each side of the interface for preventing potential arcing. Fully polarized housing helps ensure proper mating orientation, and unique keying prevents mis-mating. Designed for consumer, medical, sustainable energy telecommunications, and automotive applications, the Micro-Fit+ Connector System supports a high current rating of 13A and a maximum voltage of 600Vac.
