Fischer Connectors has launched an even smaller ultra-miniature connector, MiniMax 06, as an extension of its miniature high-density product range, the Fischer MiniMax series
The MiniMax 06 connector can include up to 12 power and signal contacts in a footprint of only 10 mm. This corresponds to a density factor of 0.83 a unique technological feature for a connector with standard 0.5 mm contacts. The new MiniMax 06 connector also includes a new unique configuration with 2 signal and 2 high-power 1.3 mm contacts for applications needing 10 Amps or more power, doubling the standard 5 Amps current rating of the existing MiniMax product line.
MiniMax 06 is easy to use and ensures premium performance even in harsh environments. Also available as a pre-cabled solution suited for handheld or body-worn applications when space is limited, in such fields as defence & security, instrumentation, testing equipment, civil or military unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), among many others.
MiniMax 06 integrates fully into the ultra-miniature high-performance Fischer MiniMax series, well-known for its use in limited space and lightweight applications, and for meeting the combined needs of multiple signals and power. Tested for high-speed protocols such as HDMI and data transfer up to 10Gb/s, the series also addresses the growing market need for higher data transmission rates.
This product proves that miniaturisation in connectivity can be successfully implemented in rugged high-density connectivity solutions that combine power and signal, explains Wim Vanheertum, MiniMax Product Manager at Fischer Connectors.
Weve extended our Fischer MiniMax series to address application engineers need to increase the performance of their miniature rugged devices. Handling more mixed signal and power connections in a unique combination of multiple contacts also means increasing flexibility in meeting specific design challenges in miniaturisation.
The Fischer MiniMax series connectors and cable assembly solutions allow design engineers to save up to 45% space and to reduce weight by up to 75% compared to standard connectors with a similar contact size.
With its new smaller version, the Fischer MiniMaxTM Series now comes in two sizes, 06 and 08, with receptacles of 10 mm and 12 mm footprint respectively. Configurations range from 4 to 24 contacts.
