16P (poles) interface connector
highly strong 2.0 mm joined height

We are pleased to announce the development and the commencement of marketing of a 0.8 mm spacing 16P (poles) interface connector for mobile phone applications, specifics of which follow.

Recently, the market has required components for smaller and thinner portable equipment such as mobile phones, as they are further downsized, to be smaller and shorter.

This new product has a short 2.0 mm profile when the plug and receptacle are joined. We have made such a height, one of the lowest dimensions in the mobile phone market for external connection, possible by application of an FEM simulation, high-precision die stamping and molding technologies for the plug spring.

Its plug-in contact structure provides high reliability. The employment of a through-hole structure for the receptacle and excess-travel stopping structure for the plug provides sufficient strength against skewed plug insertion or dropping.

A half-locking system is used for easy engagement of the plug and the receptacle. High strength and ease in use, yet small and low profile design, are compatibly available.
