Designed to meet the performance requirements of MIL 83513, EMM series connectors occupy 40% less space than previous-generation connectors from the company. They are 20% smaller than Micro D connectors for 16-pin configurations and are around 10% smaller in footprint than the closest industry competitor, Nicomatic claims.
Design features such as reversed contacts, integrated 90° back protection and interchangeable hardware have been added to enhance electrical and environmental performance.
Signal contacts are rated for up to 3A, and deliver a wiping length of 1.27mm with 1.27µm gold plating ensure that signal integrity is maintained while under conditions of heavy shock and vibration, Nicomatic adds. Devices are rated for up to 45G vibration, exceeding EIA 364-28E test conditions III&IV, up to 160 G for shock, exceeding EIA 364-27B G, and for an operational temperature range of -65 to +260°C exceeding EIA 364-32D.
Suited for both board-to-board and board-to-wire (from AWG 24 to 30) applications, EMM connectors are available with any pin selection from 04 to 60 signal contacts.
