The TE Electronics Micro-MaTch connector family, with its contact spacing of 1.27mm, offers a variety of wire-to-board and board-to-board interconnections. The Micro-MaTch contact helps prevent fretting corrosion, the traditional failure mode in tin-plated connections.
Relative movements caused by vibrations/thermal expansion between male and female contacts are absorbed by an additional positioning spring in the female part. By preventing movements on the contact spot, a gas tight connection can make the Micro-MaTch contact spring system fretting corrosion resistant.
How Micro-MaTch Connectors Work?
The Micro-MaTch connector design helps prevent fretting corrosion which is the traditional failure mode in tin plated connections. Due to an additional positioning spring in the female part, relative movements caused by vibrations and thermal expansion between male and female contacts are absorbed. By preventing movements on the contact spot, a gas tight connection is made. This contact spring system featuring the positioning spring, compensates positional tolerances and provides the high contact force required for tin plated contact systems. The Micro-MaTch contact spring system is fretting corrosion resistant.
