|
Tyco Electronics Corporation has introduced a poke-in connector for the LED lighting market. |
The new poke-in connector is a low-profile, surface-mount (SMT), two-position connector ideally suited for use in PCB-based LED strings, lighting controls, and other applications that can benefit from an easy poke-in wire termination to the PCB.
The Tyco Electronics poke-in connector offers quick and reliable wire termination as a low-labour alternative to hand-soldering wires particularly when used with single-sided aluminium clad circuit boards.
The Poke-in LED connectors are available in tape & reel packages for high speed SMT processing equipment and the high temperature plastic housing is reflow solder process compatible.
The RoHS compliant connector incorporates tin over nickel plated copper alloy contacts with a UL94V-0 rated high temperature thermoplastic housing. Packaged in reels of 800, the tape & reel packaging conforms to ANSI/EIA Standard 481-C
Although optimized for use with 18AWG 6 through 16 strand wire, the Poke-in LED connectors also accepts 18 through 22 AWG solid wire as well as 18 through 20 AWG prebond stranded wire. The connector is UL c/UL recognized for 4A at 48VDC and 4A at 250VAC. Mechanical wire retention is rated for five pounds minimum.
