Datamate Mix-Tek available for faster deliveries
Harwin is making some configurations of its Datamate Mix-Tek range of mixed power and signal 2mm connector family available as standard off-the-shelf products, thereby reducing the lead time.
Harwin's Datamate Mix-Tek connector range can be customer-specified in a huge number of configurations of signal, power and coax, effectively enabling customers to design their own Datamate connector, specific to their application, by mixing and matching the required contacts up to a maximum of 50 low-frequency contacts or 12 special (coax and power) contacts. Power contacts are rated for use at up to 20A, signal contacts are rated at up to 3A and coax contacts are rated at 50ohms. They are available in Male PC Tail, Female Crimp, Male Crimp and Female PC Tail options. Mouldings are polarised and have a UL94V-0 rating. Mix-Tek connectors comply with the following standards: BS 9525-F0033 and CECC 75101-008.
Harwin has now responded to industry's demand for faster turnaround by making the most commonly-chosen variations of the Mix-Tek range available as standard items. Product Manager Paul Gillam comments: "Design Engineers love the flexibility of Datamate Mix-Tek, but sometimes require very fast turnaround, especially for new product development. With this new programme they can immediately benefit from the size, weight, performance and cost advantages offered by this high-rel interconnect system."
Currently 41 variants of Mix-Tek Datamate are available as standard items. Configurations include power-only from 2-10 power contacts and mixed contact from two signal and two power through to 12 signal and four power. The standard range focuses on the most popular male PCB contact styles mated with female crimp options. Hexagonal slotted Jackscrews are offered across the range.
