HyperGrid
|
|
HyperGrid is a new,
scalable interconnect
technology that provides
developers with a
high performance and
robust “Drop-in”
replacement for pogo
pin, elastomer-based
and fuzz button connectors.
Suitable for mezzanine
level, IC-to-board,
board-to-board and
flex circuit-to-board
interconnect requirements.
Engineers can feel
confident that these
contacts will replace
any pogo pin or other
discrete I/O compliant
contact in select
interconnect environments.
Based on a patented
compliant floating
contact, HyperGrid
provides an electrically-efficient
connection, with a
very consistent resistance
value from pin to
pin. The 0.5 to 1.27mm
pitch contacts have
a low self-inductance
and use a low contact
force (10 to 45g).
The technology is
very easy to customize,
delivering connectors
that adhere to any
standard footprint.
It is available in
a number of connector
and interposer products
that can meet the
most demanding requirements
for signal integrity,
reliability and performance.
Suitable application
areas include high
speed microwave MMIC,
flat panel displays,
flexible cables, medical
devices, PCB and parallel
boards, and mil/areo
avionics connectors.
HyperBand
Technology -
Power contacts using
compliant contact band

The HyperBand contact
series is a stamped contact
system constructing a
ôcurrent bridge system
made up of one active
and two static contact
members. This unique construction
provides enhanced electrical
performance by providing
greater current transfer
and mechanical stability.
The high current carrying
capacity is achieved by
providing multiple contact
bridge points per unit
length. Reduced weight
and low contact insertion
and withdrawal forces
are additional features
of the HyperBand contact
system.
- Extremely low contact
resistance
- Low insertion/extraction
force
- Exceptional heat
dissipation and temperture
rating
- High current density
- High number of mating
cycles
- Termination options
available for both
bus bar and cable
applications
- Available in single
and multi-pole configurations
- 0.006 (0.15) and
0.008 (0.20) band
thickness available

Hot
Plug Contact-
Designed for Continuous
Power Applications

The Hypertronics Hot Plug
contact offers the high
reliability performance
properties of the HypertacÌ
contact, while allowing
for frequent engagement
and disengagement of "live"
electrical systems, without
causing system failures
or other costly downtimes.
The Hot Plug contact was
designed to ensure signal
integrity under harsh
electrical conditions
present in such applications
as power supplies, power
generators, AC/DC converters,
telecommunication systems
and data communication
systems.
- Hot swappable capability
to over 50 mating
cycles
- Rated at 16 amps,
115 V AC for hot plug
applications
- Contact diameter
- 2.0mm and greater
- Quick connect/disconnect
- Minimal arcing between
mating contacts
- Vibration resistant
- Hypertac®
high reliability socket
- Patented Hot Plug
pin
- Tested to applicable
sections of UL1977
