RotaConnect® Rotatable Board-to-Board Connectors
FCI Basics’ RotaConnect is a hermaphroditic rotatable board-to-board SMT connector
The FCI Basics' RotaConnect is a unique rotatable board-to-board SMT connector that can be used to support perpendicular, coplanar, and angled connections in multiple mating/un-mating directions.
The hermaphroditic (mates to itself) design enables mating at any angle between +90° and -60°, which enables the connector to be placed anywhere on the PCB. This connector is available in 2 and 4 positions.
The RotaConnect design allows the use of a single part number, which will comprise both male and female contacts. High temperature-grade housing material is reflow soldering compatible, and the tape and reel packaging permits vacuum pick-and-place application.
