Phoenix Contact FINEPITCH Board to Board Connectors

Phoenix Contact FINEPITCH Series Board-to-Board Connectors offer both shielded and unshielded solutions for reliable signal and data transmission. These connectors are ideal for industrial-grade PCB connections and are available in the FINEPITCH, FQ, FR, and FS series. The FINEPITCH connectors support voltage ratings from 125V to 160V and offer a minimum insulation resistance from 1GΩ to 10GΩ. These board-to-board connectors are available with pitch sizes ranging from 0.635mm to 2.54mm and support current ratings from 0.5A to 2.3A. Typical applications are telecommunications, building automation, industrial automation, and IoT components.

Video Transcript

If you need a board-to-board connector that is robust, compact, and flexible, then you need Phoenix Contact’s FINEPITCH series. FINEPITCH connectors, available with a 0.8mm or a 1.27mm pitch, have a long wipe length to address a wide range of stack heights, and the housing design permits a large compensation tolerance.

FINEPITCH 0.8 has a unique, vibration-proof double contact, supports data rates up to 16Gbps, and is shielded to protect against interference. FINEPITCH 1.27 is offered in horizontal and vertical variants so you can arrange PCBs however you want. Mezzanine, mother-daughter, and coplanar configurations are all possible, and a female IDC connector permits ribbon cable installations as well. FINEPITCH 1.27 uses a latching mechanism on the cable side of the connector to protect against vibration.
