As consumer and commercial electronics manufacturers focus on engineering smaller products with increased power and performance, the need for highly reliable board-level interconnect devices becomes a critical design consideration. To satisfy this growing demand, Fujipoly offers its low resistance, high current carrying capacity ZebraŽ FG-S silicone connector.
This Zebra® connector is manufactured with a silicone rubber core that is embedded with a single row of thin, gold-plated phosphor bronze wires. The wires are spaced on .10 mm centers and offer anisotropic conduction in the vertical orientation. The conductive core is sandwiched between two parallel insulator rows of silicon sponge for easy installation.
The FG-S connector provides a current carrying capacity of 30 mA amps per wire and exhibits an average contact resistance of only .35 ohms at 15% compression.
