Molex launches the SlimStack 0.40mm Floating Board-to-Board Connectors, designed to save space and allow for design flexibility. These new connectors are one of the smallest floating B-to-B connectors in the market. They are designed for automotive, industrial, and consumer applications that require a large floating range and high-speed transmission.

The SlimStack 0.40mm Floating Board-to-Board Connectors feature a low halogen housing material, a ±0.50mm floating range that eases misalignment worries by facilitating automatic assembly, a soft floating force, temperature support up to 125 degrees Celsius, and a high-speed transmission rate of 6 Gbps.

“Our new connectors are a step above the rest, allowing for easy assembly, reliability in challenging environments, and reduced impacts from shock and vibration,” said Kenji Miyahara, global product manager, Molex. “Plus, because assembly is automatic, it reduces customers’ time to market and saves labor costs.”

Compared to similar floating connectors in the market right now, the SlimStack 0.40mm Floating Board-to-Board Connectors have a smaller size and a large floating range in three directions.
