HIROSE's Card Edge Connectors

HIROSE is expanding its range of floating connectors with the FX27 series.

Connectors With Floating Function

HIROSE is expanding its range of floating connectors with the FX27 series. The card edge connector with floating function is designed to support applications requiring PCI Express Gen 1 (2.5 Gbps) transmission. The structure of the FX27 series features a flexible stacking height, dependent on the interposer PCB length. By using an interposer, a stacking height of 22mm (minimum) can be achieved.

In addition, a wide self-alignment guide range of ±0.7 mm allows for easy mating in X and Y directions. The FX27 provides the ultimate design flexibility with the option for designers to customize their original interposer printed circuit board with chip components.

Advantages and Highlights of the FX27 Series

A highlight of the FX27 series is that it can be used as a power connector, by using the entire surface of the interposer as a conductor for applications with good heat dissipation efficiency. Furthermore, benefits from the floating function include the option of having multiple floating connectors used on the same PCB, connectors contribute to the device design by absorbing assembly errors, which helps to reduce the need for corrective re-work operations, and the spring portion of the terminal absorbs stress imparted by alignment errors. This reduces the stress applied to the mounted parts, which enhances reliability and prevents solder cracking.

Suitable applications are FA control devices, broadcasting camera/projector, base transition ;station, car navigation and smart meters.
