Yamaichi Electronics has enlarged its portfolio of board-to-board and board-to-cable connecters with two new connector types, MatchCon and BoardFit. The MatchCon connectors are described here. The new MatchCon connectors (MBP/MBS series) are characterized by a special contact design which is particularly qualified for applications with strong vibration exposure, e.g. in the automotive area. Due to positioning springs the male and female contacts interlock strongly so that the typical fretting of tin-plated contacts can be eliminated through the high contact force.

MatchCon is based on a 1.27mm pitch, offers a wide range of 90° and 180° board connectors not only in SMT but also with TH pins. The connection to the cable is secured by IDC technology. Another locking feature allows an additional locking between the board and cable connector. Currently the different versions are available with pin counts from 6 to 26.

Additionally to this connector series Yamaichi Electronics offers a wide range of board-to-board and board-to-cable solutions with different pitches and design versions, e.g. the new BoardFit connectors (P3/P4 series).
