Molex’s Picoflex IDT connector range includes surface mount compatible PCB headers available in high temperature Nylon and Polyphthalamide. 

All seven header options are polarised both to the PCB and to the female connector; and the staggered solder tails with 1.27mm pitch have 2.54mm distance between both solder tail rows, significantly reducing the risk of solder bridging.

The one-piece moulded body has preloaded IDT terminals and the cable entry window on the IDT connectors has a scalloped profile, ensuring precise positioning of 1.27mm 26 to 28 AWG standard ribbon cable.

The connector is terminated by the IDT terminal being pushed up into the housing, displacing the cable jacket as well as positioning itself in the top of the housing to achieve effective strain relief.

Four contact points per circuit and the integral strain relief help ensure a reliable electrical contact in applications with high vibrations and intense shock requirements.
