Tyco Electronics Inverted SMT Thru-Board Connector

The Inverted SMT Thru-Board Connector provides a means to bring power from the underside of an FR4 or aluminum-clad pc board, eliminating issues of dressing wires on the top side of LED boards . The 2-position through 6-position connector utilizes surface-mount technology on the top of the board and passes through the board to present an underside interface. The connector mates with standard Tyco Electronics / AMP Mini CT connectors. The inverted design allows simpler assembly and installation of solid-state LED lighting in architectural, residential and commercial applications. The Tyco Electronics / AMP Mini CT connector is rated for 3 amps per contact, on 24 AWG wire.

With a space-saving low-profile design and rounded corners to minimize shadowing, the connector fits through a hole or notch in the board.

High-temperature materials allow the connector to be reflow soldered, while a flat top surface provides compatibility with vacuum pickup. The connector uses surface-mount hold-downs to provide stability during mating and un-mating. With UL Recognition and CSA Certification, the connector meets the requirements of UL 1977, File No. E28476.
