MINITEK™ EJECT LATCH HEADER
FOR CABLE-TO-BOARD CONNECTIONS
MINITEKTM EJECT LATCH HEADER
APPLICATION
DESCRIPTION
Minitek™ is FCI’s brand for board to board and cable/wire
to board connectors in 2.00mm (0.079”) pitch. FCI is the leading
supplier of this type of modular system and continues to grow and
expand it. A new eject latch header is now being added to this series.
This header securely latches the receptacle in place and also
enables simple ejection. Four walled shielding protects pins in
unmated condition.
To prevent mismating, the eject latch header is equipped with
polarization keys. Recessed pins ensure proper alignment, eliminate
damage during mating, and maintain high pin retention to the
housing during repeated mating cycles.
The eject latch header has a very compact product design. It is
made from thermoplastic compatible with reflow applications.
The latches are specifically designed to minimize space requirements
on the printed circuit board. The part mates with the Minitek IDC
receptacle.
The Minitek IDC receptacle is inserted into the header.
The eject latch header is equipped with polarization keys.
To unmate, open the latches.
The receptacle is automatically ejected.
The eject latches are pushed shut onto the receptacle
and close with an audible click.
This new Minitek Eject Latch is fully compatible with Minitek IDC receptacles both with or without strain relief.
