Versatile IDC connector suits tight spaces
FCI has announced the release of its robust Griplet miniature IDC connector for wire-to-board terminations. The low profile and compact design makes Griplet a suitable connector where space is tight and ease of installation is important. Each connector has a height of 3.7mm and a footprint of 4.0x6.1mm.
Designed specifically for a stackable pitch up to 12 positions, the common housings are available to secure and protect terminated components. Griplet provides a highly reliable connection, and is suitable in harsh and industrial market applications requiring direct connection between individual wires and PCB.
Fabrizio Stango, Commercial Portfolio Director, FCI, commented: “The Griplet accommodates multiple wire sizes which reduces the total applied cost versus solder or crimp process, and custom made housings are available for automatic pick and place processes.”
Griplet connectors supports various wire-to-board applications such as industrial and instrumentation, automation controls, sensors, LED lighting, white goods and automotive.
