Zierick has applied the benefits of capillary action to our newest interconnect product — the Board Stacking Connector. This unique connector surface mounts to both the bottom and the top of a PCB, allowing for the connection of a mother and daughter board without through-hole pins. The result? Greater PCB design flexibility, more cost-efficiency and a higher quality connection.
Available in bulk, on pallets or on SMT tape, the Board Stacking Connectors use minimal real estate, allowing additional components to be placed on the PCB. They are self-centering and offer co-planarity within 0.001″, virtually eliminating any alignment problems. Plus, they have low contact resistance and a high current rating to meet today’s modular power requirements.
The Board Stacking Connector uses capillary action to provide superior solder joint strength for a more reliable connection. The connectors are first surface-mounted to the mother board. After reflow, the PCB with the connectors are surface-mounted to the daughter board.
