Hirose Electric extends its miniature BM23 series fpc to board connectors, including a standard signal version and a hybrid connector version, to provide signal and power contacts. The BM23 series connector designed for portable electronic devices that require high transmission speed and robust performance has a micro design, which provides significant space savings in digital cameras, portable audio players, portable game devices, laptops, smartphones, tablets, wearables, etc.
The BM23PF series hybrid connector has a signal contact with a rated voltage of 0.3 A and a power supply contact with a rated voltage of 5 A. The BM23PF version can touch options 10, 14, 20, 24, 30, 40, 42, 46, and 54 at a stack height of 0.8 mm. Only the BM23FR version of the standard signal is rated at 0.3 A. The BM23FR has two stacking heights, including 0.6mm and 0.8mm. 0.8mm stack height available at 10, 18, and 60 contacts. The stack height of 0.6 mm can be 6, 8, 10, 12, 16, 20, 24, 30, 30, 40, and 50 contacts.
Both BM23PF and BM23FR versions support USB 3.1 Gen 2 and provide a transfer speed of up to 10 Gbps. With only 0.35 mm spacing, 1.98 mm depth and fast transmission speed, the low-key BM23 series fpc to board connector provides unique design flexibility to further realize the miniaturization of portable devices. The connector has a sturdy design, and the metal solder retainer plate provides strong PCB retention by absorbing and reducing the stress caused by drop impact. This metal label also prevents damage to the housing if the connector is wrong and helps to provide a breaking strength of 90 N, which is up to three times more than other products on the market. The sturdy metal lock provides clear tactile click to prevent any unintentional disconnection.
The BM23 series fpc to board connector has a highly reliable two-point "U" contact design, in which the socket contact encloses the entire head contact to ensure stable and repeatable performance. The BM23 series uses guide ribs, which can be automatically aligned 0.4 mm in the pitch direction and 0.3 mm in the width direction. The operation is simple and convenient. The rated voltage AC/DC of BM23 series connector is 30 V, the rated current is 0.3 a, the maximum contact resistance is 100 milliohms, the minimum insulation resistance is 50 milliohms, and the operating temperature is - 55 ° C to+85 ° C.
