FLEX

AirBorn is pleased to offer a complete line of MicroD (M-Series) high-reliability flex jumper cables to satisfy your board-to-board/ box-to-box interconnect needs. The flex jumpers are shipped with hardware attached in a variety of configurations and range in length from 3″ to 36″ as standard. Longer lengths are possible on single- and double-sided flex applications. Rigid flex jumpers are also available beginning at 4″ lengths***. Higher temperature solutions greater than 250°F are also an option. A variety of quick-turn, low-volume connector solutions are possible from straddle mount (SMT) to plated through-hole (PTH).

RC & RCII

The AirBorn stackable compliant connector family is one of AirBorn’s solutions for high-density, board-to-board stacking applications. This connector family is available in 0.075” contact spacing and 100 Ω and 85 Ω differential serial buses.

• Wide variety of standard pin/tail lengths accommodate any board-to-board spacing
• 0.075” contact spacing
• Reliable “eye of the needle”-compliant section design eliminates soldering
• BeCu contacts (special high-conductivity, high-temperature alloy)
• Very robust socket contact (low-stress design)
• Individually repairable contacts

RZ

The RZ family of high-density, board-to-board or flex circuit stacking applications is unique, offering users a reliable one-piece contact system. Its solder-less interconnect is compressed or “sandwiched” under pressure between parallel printed wiring boards or between a printed wiring board and other electronic components such as an IC or multichip module.

• 0.050” staggered grid array
• Up to 400 contacts per square inch
• BeCu contacts for reliable mating
• Standard heights from 0.100” to 0.350”
• Customer configurations available to meet your specific design needs.
