WIRE TO BOARD CONNECTORS
PV® WIRE-TO-BOARD CONNECTOR SYSTEM
UNIQUE DESIGN PROVIDES HIGH RELIABILITY, HIGH DURABILITY AND HIGH RETENTION
DESCRIPTION
The innovative PV® crimp-to-wire system
connects discrete wire to printed circuit boards.
High reliability dual-metal receptacle terminals
plug to industry standard 0.025 inch (0.635mm)
square posts. A variety of containment, protection
and guidance options are available for both sides
of the connector interface.
Wire side- PV® receptacle terminals can be
terminated to wire and used discretely or inserted
to multiple-circuit, MINI-LATCH connector
housings that include optional polarizing keys.
Printed Circuit side- Shrouded multiple-post,
headers include an integral friction feature that
grips the sides of the mating MINI-LATCH
housings and reduces the risk of disengagement.
Other FCI header options include discrete staked
pins or BergStik® un-shrouded headers.
FEATURES & BENEFITS
tUnique dual-metal PV® receptacle contact maintains
contact pressure through 1000 mating cycles.
A beryllium copper spring provides high normal force
at the mating interface, while the brass contact body
produces a reliable, gas-tight crimp termination
tChoice of three different spring pressures allows the
t user to customize insertion and withdrawal forces to
t individual application requirements
tShrouded header side walls engage with the sides of
t the MINI-LATCH housing to provide additional retention
