People argue about the attributes of different generations, but there’s no debate about the Generation Y Automotive Terminals and Connectors from TE Connectivity. They’re simple to use, highly ergonomic, and require little force to mate. With a hybrid mixture of 0.64 millimeter and 2.8 millimeter terminals, these connectors are ideal for combining power, signal, and data all in a single package, thereby reducing cable terminations and application weight. These connectors are available in both sealed and unsealed options, making them suitable for a wide range of different environments, and a secondary one-piece hinge lock provides independent locking of the female terminal. Additionally, these connectors also come with multiple mounting options, including through hole, SMD tabs, and press fit compliant pin terminals to provide design flexibility, come in both straight and right-angle configurations, and all exceed the performance requirements of USCAR-2, -20, -21, and -25.
