TE MIL-STD-1553B PCB Connectors
TE MIL-STD-1553B PCB connectors offer a reliable mechanical and electrical data bus interface.
TE Connectivity
announced its MIL-STD-1553B PCB connectors for aerospace applications that offer high-speed connectivity and reliable performance in extreme conditions and environments. The new press-fit PCB connectors offer customers a robust electrical and mechanical connection between the connector and the PCB that is able to help withstand mechanical abuse such as shock and vibration.
“TE has a long history of manufacturing and supplying robust and reliable MIL-STD-1553B data bus systems, and our components and harnesses continue to be in demand worldwide,” said Janeann Avants, product manager, Global Aerospace, Defense & Marine, TE. “This new PCB connector will provide an easy and durable method for interfacing between the data bus and the PCB.”
MIL-STD-1553B data bus systems have met the demanding performance requirements of military aircraft platforms for more than 30 years and are still being specified in 21st century military aircraft, such as the F-35, because of the system’s ability to perform reliably under extreme conditions.
The new PCB connectors have a tin-plated PCB-mount connector that withstands 500 hours of salt spray exposure. They are compatible and mateable with standard data bus cable plug connectors. With an operating temperature of -65°C to +125°C, they are also available with pin or socket contacts.
