Floating board-to-board connectors

FS 0.635 improves tolerance compensation

Middletown, Pa. – The space-saving board-to-board connectors in Phoenix Contact’s FS 0.635 series enable mezzanine PCB arrangements with high-speed data transmission rates up to 30 Gbps. The floating system features a tolerance compensation of up to 0.7 mm in the “x” and “y” directions, as well as 0.6 mm in the “z” direction.

This flexibility within the board-to-board connection minimizes mechanical strain and provides a reliable connection. These properties are particularly important in environments with high vibration, when using several board-to-board connectors side by side, or for automatic insertion using robots.

The combination of floating and high speed is unique on the market: Due to the curved contact, the floating version achieves a data transmission rate of up to 40 Gbps, compared to the rigid version, which supports up to 30 Gbps.

As an additional service, Phoenix Contact offers design-in support with high-speed simulations and S-parameters. The floating female connector strip is combined with a fixed, rigid male connector strip. Because of the floating principle, the FS 0.635 series can achieve stack heights between 8 and 12.6 mm. As a standard rigid board-to-board connection, it can realize stack heights between 6 and 16.6 mm. The entire series is available now in 20, 40, 60, and 80 positions.

A game-changer for IP designers: design-stage verification

Sponsored by Siemens Digital Industries Software

In this new technical paper, you’ll gain valuable insights into how, by moving physical verification earlier in the IP design flow, you can locate and correct design errors sooner, reducing costs and getting complex designs to market faster. Dive into the challenges of hard, soft and custom IP creation, and learn how to run targeted, real-time or on-demand physical verification with precision, earlier in the layout process.
