Military, avionics & aerospace electronics are continuing to embrace more portable and also higher density ruggedized electronics.
Some of these important customized connectors offer multiple functions crammed into a highly densified module, often run on starvation current levels, offering surprising top speed digital processing data and control details.
The Z-Axis connectors come into their own in these demanding applications due to their clear advantages:
- Insulation from shock and vibration.
- Their strength compared with the fragility of existing fine pitch connectors.
- Their ability to be easily replaced.
- The low cost of both tooling and unit price where customized parts are needed.
- Where vertical or horizontal space is at a premium.
- Where there is a demand for a right-angle connection in limited physical space.
- Where the alignment of multiple high-density connectors will prove problematic during assembly.
- Where solder bridging of high-density connectors is a problem.
