TE Connectivity Micro-MaTch Paddle Board Connectors

Micro-MaTch Paddle Board or IDC transition connectors for use in wire to board interconnections. These Micro-MaTch paddle board connectors enable ribbon cable to be connected directly to the PCB without the need for a mating connector. The PCB paddle board connector features IDC contacts eliminating the need for wire preparation. The Micro-MaTch range of connectors have a compact, space saving design. The female contacts have a contact spring system that prevents fretting corrosion. A positioning spring absorbs movement between the male and female contacts caused by vibration and thermal expansion. Prevention of movement on the contact spot enables a gas tight connection to be made which makes the contact spring system fretting resistant. These Micro-MaTch paddle board IDC connectors feature a kinked leg design for secure retention to the PCB and board stand offs.
