Vero Technologies has strengthened its range of SMT devices suitable for use with high-speed placement machines and promises additional designs and sizes to follow in the coming months. It has added four industry-standard sized loop terminals, the 0603 (1.6 x 0.80 x 1.15mm), the 0805 (2.0 x 1.25 x 1.45mm) and the 1206 (3.2 x 1.60 x 2.0mm); all are compatible with industry-standard probes, clips and hooks.

All sizes are available in a nickel-plated stainless steel construction and the largest size is also available in a copper alloy, allowing a choice of material that best fits a production process. 

Also introduced is a 2mm high, 1mm diameter, ball and socket terminal. It requires a minimum pad size of only 0.080in., 2.0mm, enabling it to be placed by any pick and place machine in congested board designs. The socket has less than 2mO contact resistance, is rated at 3A and offers gentle detachment. The matching 3.2mm diameter socket has a ±30° angular movement before disconnection, giving good retention during use. 

All the new products are available ex-stock in units of 2000 or 2500 on standard 7in. tape and reels for automated pick and place; they are also available in minimum quantities of 100 for smaller volume requirements.
