ROTACONNECT® ROTATABLE
BOARD-TO-BOARD CONNECTOR
OVERVIEW
FCI extends the RotaConnect® Board-to-Board (BTB) range
with a pegged version. The locating pegs aid simple
placement. This eliminates the hold-down and hence will
help customer save the space between connectors on the
PCB.
The RotaConnect® BTB range is a unique rotatable Board-to-
Board SMT connector that can be used to support perpendicular,
coplanar and angled connections, in multiple mating and
unmating directions.
The hermaphroditic “mates to itself” design enables mating at
any angle between +90° and -60°, enabling the connectors to
be placed anywhere on the PCB. This design allows the use of a
single part number which will comprise both male and female
contacts.
The high temperature grade housing material is reflow solder
compatible. Tape and reel packaging permits vacuum pick and
place application.
With this extension, FCI’s RotaConnect® BTB range offers 2
and 4 positions with hold-down and locating peg options.
