These miniature, shielded interface connectors were designed for use with portable terminal equipment. They are
suited to a wide range of applications including hand-held terminals and PDA equipment because of excellent
insertion/removal durability (20,000 times).

■FEATURES
(1) Long-life connectors have an insertion/removal life of 20,000 cycles.
(2) The structure of the contacts is the highly reliable, two-contact bellows type.
(3) The lock uses a snap-lock system which relieves the stress that accompanies forceful removal, making these connectors resistant to external forces such as sudden pulls of the cable.
(4) Release of the lock is achieved with a simple operation of the push buttons at the left and right sides of the plug. A positive lock sensation is provided by a click locking sound when the connector engages.
(5) The miniature, lightweight design (i.e., about 2g for a 16-conductor receptacle) makes these connectors effective in reducing the overall size and weight of terminal equipment.
(6) Use of a new box-bending structure for the metal shell supports EMI protection and makes this a tough connector.
(7) ESD protection is provided by the metal shell-not the cover (unless it is metal plated).
(8) The board mounting system uses 0.8-mm spaced single row SMT for easy mounting.
(9) Suitable boards can be from 0.8 to 1.6mm thick, affording a wide selection of board thicknesses.
(10) There are two types of plug-side wiring systems, the pressure welding type designed to save labor in wiring, and the solder type which enables an arbitrary selection of the type of cable.
