FX26 Series
Durable Board-to-Board connector suitable for Powertrain Connection
HIROSE ELECTRIC has successfully developed a high contact reliability connector with a -40°C to 140 °C operating temperature that maintains the highest performance in vibration environments, including on-board powertrain.
High heat and vibration relief performance required
While the shift to hybrid cars and EV (electric vehicle) is gaining momentum worldwide, the motors and inverters used in these eco-cars are always subject to problems of heat generation and vibration. In addition, the lifespan of a car, which was said to be 10 years and 100,000 kilometers, is increasing rapidly, so vehicles need to be able to be operated safely for a long period of time. Therefore, automotive connectors must also be tough enough to withstand the high heat and vibration conditions of powertrains for long time spans.
The market needs of heat resistance and vibration resistance were used as criteria for our products. Such criteria was taken into account through repeated research and development. HIROSE have developed a product that satisfies the high quality required for in-vehicle connectivity. A unique floating structure solves the problem of contact failure caused by vibration. Therefore, HIROSE have developed a small, easy-to-assemble connector with outstanding performance in vibration environments. That product is the Board-to-Board floating connector FX26, designed to withstand heat and vibration.
Board-to-Board Floating Connector with Vibration Isolation Structure
(1) Thermal shock test at -40°C to 140°C and 3,000 cycles cleared to confirm heat resistance.
(2) Pass severe vibration conditions for equipment installed in the engine room, such as inside the inverter.
(3) Miniature connector with 1 mm pitch, low height and space-saving attributes.
Product development based on the FX26 design concept
The newly developed FX26 can meet the requirements of powertrain control systems for existing electric vehicles and hybrid vehicles. HIROSE will continue to meet the evolving and increasing needs of automotive electronics by keeping FX26’s design concept in mind when developing future products.
