Top Load Socket: BTB
22-9159
INTER_CONNECT
The 9159 series of Board-to-Board interconnect system allows two
PCB's to be mated end-to-end creating strips of LED lighting. Designed
specifically for the unique Solid State Lighting (SSL) market requiring
coplanar (horizontal-to-horizontal) PCB mating with a 5 Amp current
rating in the smallest package available. The top loading socket allows
complete PCB’s to be replaced in the field without having to dissemble
the entire strip of boards. The connector has a two part insulator whereby
the top of the connector will slide open allowing the plug connector to be
pulled out either vertically or at a slight angle. Once the PCB is replaced,
the cover is slid back like a Zero Insertion Force (ZIF) connector to the
closed position. The PCB layout is identical to the standard horizontal
socket to maintain family commonality at the PCB level.
APPLICATIONS
• Coplanar PCB mating in SSL products
• LED linear lighting strips
• Application Notes: refer to 201-01-123
FEATURES AND BENEFITS
• Slide open top: allows field reparability at the light fixture level
