In this module we will review the features and benefits of this new 3M Shielded Compact Ribbon (SCR) Connector and describe applications for it.
SCR System is an interconnect solution for input/output (I/O) applications. Important in an I/O system, the ribbon style contact gives the mating interface robustness in use. The contact is capable of carrying either signal or power, up to 1A per pin, allowing designers flexibility in carrying power to peripheral devices. The combination of contact and insulator design and materials makes the 3M SCR System resistant to vibration. Wire up to AWG 18 wire is solder terminated to each contact for quick assembly, with no special tooling required.
