The USB1130 is a USB-A 2.0 connector tested to 10,000 mating cycles, and the USB1135 is a 3.0 variant with 20,000 cycles tested. This is achieved due to improved retention forces thanks to a stainless-steel construction used for the shell of each connector. This makes the USB1130 over six times more durable than standard USB A 2.0, and the USB1135 twice as durable than standard USB A 3.0.
In addition to the increased mating cycle specification, both connectors are 3A rated, double that of comparable products, giving designs the option for quick charge functionality. Available in top mount, through-hole configuration, with two kinked shell stakes for PCB retention while processing.
“There is demand for higher performance USB A connectors, and this has helped the development of the USB1130 and USB1135,” commented Andrew Stewart, GCT Sales Director. “USB A connectors are synonymous with charging, and many devices that have constant mating requirements will be able to benefit from higher mating cycles these connectors offer.”
The USB1130 and USB1135 USB A connectors are now available from Digi-Key.
