New Floating Board to Board Connectors

Floating board-to-board connectors are electromechanical interconnects that can absorb alignment errors from pick-and-place machines.

Unlike traditional connectors, these connectors have a unique design that suspends the mating interface above the PCB using bent terminals that provide elasticity.

This elasticity is crucial in providing several advantages, including improved misalignment tolerance and greater reliability in electronic connections within vibration environments in automotive and high end industrial applications.
