The developed the 9159 Series of SMT connectors for co-planar PCB mating for the challenging Solid State Lighting (SSL) market. These connectors needed to be small, low in height, carry up to 5 Amps/contact and then function up to 125C for extended periods. This application has been very unique to the SSL market where PCB’s are stacked end-to-end to create linear strip lighting in everything from office to transportation applications where products are exposed to harsh mechanical and environmental environments.The IDC cable socket connector allows for 22-24AWG discrete or cabled wires to be easily and reliability terminated into a 9159 standard interface plug connector. This will allow power and signals to be connectors onto a PCB socket connector while providing positive latching. The wire assembly support block allows for 2 through 6 wires to be terminated all in one step with any standard bench top press. IDC covers provide both through (daisy chain applications) and wire stop termination options.

• Mates with standard 9159 horizontal plug, keeping same BTB connector system
• Economical and reliable IDC wire termination
• Gold plated BeCu contact system for high reliability in harsh environments
• Integrally molded latch offers positive latching after mating
