■Features
1.
Certified to perform as required in USB 2.0 Standard
Tested and certified by USB Association approved laboratory the
connectors will perform at transmission speeds up to 480Mbps.
2. Designed for Low Skew performance
The distance between twisted pairs conductors (i.e.,
contact nos. 2 and 3) is of equal electrical length, for
receptacle and plug, resulting in zero theoretical skew.
3.
Controlled Termination of Individual Conductors
The termination part of the contact is firmly attached in the molded
insulator body. Hirose’s Electric unique design of the metal shield
prevents short circuits, allowing the overmold resin to flow in the
terminated area.
By not using heat shrinkable tubing (or any other additional process),
the non-twisted part of the conductors is very short, suppressing any
unwanted impedance disturbances in the termination area.
4. Ease of mating and handling
Thin design of the plug assembly and the overmold section allows use
in small spaces.
The plug also incorporates a build-in snap-lock feature, providing
tactile verification of the full and secure mating of plug and receptacle.
5. Two types of metal shields
Two styles of the receptacle metal shield are available,
depending on the customer’s PCB design requirement:
-Surface Mount Termination
-Solder Dip Type
6. Printed Circuit Board placement features
Precise location on the board can be accomplished using
receptacle assemblies with or without the positioning boss.
7.
Board placement with Automatic Equipment
Receptacle assemblies are provided with a heat resistant flat surfaces, removable after completion of the
soldering process and are supplied on the reels.
8. Environmental considerations
Plating is lead-free in order to protect environment.
9. Support of Non-halogen Cable
Wiring harness can be arranged in non-halogen cable types.
Note: Non-halogen items are not covered in the current USB 2.0 Standard.
■Applications
Personal and mobile computer peripheral equipment, data terminals, digital cameras, MP3 players, PDA’s, GPS
and other devices utilizing standard USB protocols
