The newest addition to Tyco’s Crown Clip interconnect series is the 150-A Crown Clip Junior connector. The connector mates directly to a power bus bar, providing a space-efficient interconnection in solder or screw-mount configurations suitable for telecom power supply and power distribution applications. It satisfies the demand for low insertion/extraction forces and features hot-plug capability, making it well suited for reliable high-power connections. The connector mates with a 3.0-mm thick plated bus bar, providing a separable interface that eases assembly, inspection, and troubleshooting. The right-angle connector can be soldered directly to a PCB or screwed to a bus bar for a 150-A current rating at less than 30ºC temperature rise. Selectively plated, high conductivity copper contacts offer low resistance and low milli-volt drop, reducing temperature rise for efficient power distribution. In blindmate applications this connector can handle adverse tolerances through its anti-stress feature. TYCO ELECTRONICS LTD., Harrisburg, PA. (800) 522-6752.
