ly available from connector and component manufacturer GTK is a series of 3mm pitch connectors designed for high current/high density applications which require the design flexibility of wire-to-wire and wire-to-board configurations. Capable of carrying currents of up to 5A max and with a 10mΩ contact resistance, the new MPC series connectors are suitable for both power and signal applications.

Featuring snap-in pegs for optimum retention on the PCB, plus locking clamps for secure mating, GTK’s new 3mm pitch connectors also have isolated terminals to prevent contacts from damage. More, devices are polarised to prevent mis-mating. They are available for circuit sizes 2 – 24 for single and dual row applications.

Applications for the new MPC series connectors include white goods, telecoms/datacoms, industrial automation, gaming and vending, and office equipment.
