New from TE Connectivity is the Inverted Thru Board (ITB) card edge connector which facilitates direct board-to-board mating of driver boards to the underside of LED array boards.
This surface mounted connector was developed for LED lighting applications and other devices to provide a cable-less, space saving power connection between a driver board and LED array PCB. When this connector is top mounted on an array PCB, the perpendicular mating direction into the underside of the array PCB makes the connector ideal for space-limited applications.
These applications include LED Edison-style retrofit bulbs as well as MR16 and PAR series bulb replacements commonly used in spotlights, downlights, track lights, indoor and outdoor LED lighting fixtures. While designed for lighting applications, this product may also be used in non-lighting applications where a compact, right angle board-to-board interconnect is needed.
The ITB card edge connector eliminates wire routing in assemblies by providing a direct mating solution for faster and easier assembly. By removing wires from the top side of the LED array board, the need to creatively route wires is eliminated and replaced with a low-profile design that extends only 1,5 mm above the top plane of the PCB.
To further optimise system optical performance, the connector is designed with rounded corners to minimise shadowing from the light emitting surface. Designed to be assembly-friendly, it features a flat top surface to allow vacuum pickup and is offered in tape and reel packaging for high-speed SMT processing. The connectors are offered in two versions to accommodate board thicknesses of 1,0 mm and 1,2 mm.
