This reduces the requirement for separate power and signal connectors which saves costs and space on the board.</span></p><p style="margin:0;padding:0px;">&nbsp;</p><p style="margin:0;"><span style="font-family:&#39;Arial&#39;,&#39;sans-serif&#39;;">The pin assignment and the impedance characteristic of 85+/-9 Ω support USB 3.1 Type-C gen.2 (10 Gbps) high-speed signal transmission.</span></p><p style="margin:0;padding:0px;">&nbsp;</p><p style="margin:0;"><span style="font-family:&#39;Arial&#39;,&#39;sans-serif&#39;;">Although the dimensions are compact, performance is not compromised, and the parts are able to offer highly reliable mechanical<br />connection. This is due to the provision of unique two-point contacts and a long effective mating length of 0.2mm for the power contact or 0.23mm for the signal contact.</span></p><p style="margin:0;padding:0px;">&nbsp;</p><p style="margin:0;"><span style="font-family:&#39;Arial&#39;,&#39;sans-serif&#39;;">Guide ribs are incorporated into the housing body, providing for a wide self-alignment range of 0.3mm in the </span><span style="font-family:&#39;Arial&#39;,&#39;sans-serif&#39;;">XY direction and permitting smoother mating operation. In addition, a tactile click is generated upon mating completion, preventing incomplete mating and enhancing operability.</span></p><p style="margin:0;padding:0px;">&nbsp;</p><p style="margin:0;"><strong style="font-size:11pt;font-family:&#39;Arial&#39;,&#39;sans-serif&#39;;">Key Features</strong></p><p style="margin:0;padding:0px;">&nbsp;</p><ul style="list-style-type:disc;"><li><span style="font-family:&#39;Arial&#39;,&#39;sans-serif&#39;;">Number of contacts: 10, 20, 24, 30 &amp; 40 signal / 2 power</span></li><li><span style="font-family:&#39;Arial&#39;,&#39;sans-serif&#39;;">Contact p</span><span style="font-family:&#39;Arial&#39;,&#39;sans-serif&#39;;">itch: 0.35mm </span></li><li><span style="font-family:&#39;Arial&#39;,&#39;sans-serif&#39;;">Current rating: 0.25A signal / 5A power</span></li><li><strong> </strong><span style="font-family:&#39;Arial&#39;,&#39;sans-serif&#39;;">Stack height: 0.8mm</span></li><li><span style="font-family:&#39;Arial&#39;,&#39;sans-serif&#39;;">Voltage rating: 30V</span></li><li><span style="font-family:&#39;Arial&#39;,&#39;sans-serif&#39;;">Mating cycles: 10</span></li><li><span style="font-family:&#39;Arial&#39;,&#39;sans-serif&#39;;">Halogen-free</span></li></ul><p style="margin:0;text-indent:-1cm;margin-left:1cm;"><span style="font-family:&#39;Arial&#39;,&#39;sans-serif&#39;;">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; </span></p><p style="margin:0;padding:0px;">&nbsp;</p><p style="margin:0;"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-family:&#39;Arial&#39;,&#39;sans-serif&#39;;">Suitable</span><span style="font-family:&#39;Arial&#39;,&#39;sans-serif&#39;;"> applications are point-of-sale equipment, portable handheld devices, and any other devices using USB 3.1 high-speed transmission.</span></p><p style="margin:0;padding:0px;">&nbsp;</p><p style="margin:0;padding:0px;">&nbsp;</p><p style="margin:0;padding:0px;"><span style="font-family:&#39;Arial&#39;,&#39;sans-serif&#39;;"> </span>&nbsp;</p> <div class="migration-injected-attachments"><div style="font-weight:bold;margin:15px 0 5px 0;">Attachments:</div><div></div><table style="border:0;"><tbody><tr><td width="160"><span class="_se_attachment" id="attid_https://www.element14.com/community/api/core/v3/attachments/214696"><a href="https://community.element14.com/cfs-file/__key/communityserver-wikis-components-files/00-00-00-00-34/BM24-series.pdf">community.element14.com/.../BM24-series.pdf</a></span></td><td><span style="font-size:80%;">BM24 series.pdf</span></td></tr></tbody></table></div><div style="clear:both;"></div> <div style="font-size: 90%;">Tags: hybrid_connector, high_speed_connector, board_to_fpc</div>
