an excellent blend of size, durability and performance for
emerging applications in GPS, automotive and wireless
communications. OSX connectors are 30% smaller than
traditional snap-on SMB connectors, offering greater
packaging density and weight reduction. OSX connectors
are mechanically robust with beryllium copper spring fingers
rated at a minimum of 500 mating cycles. The snap-on
interface facilitates assembly, eliminating the need for a
threaded connection, and ensuring full engagement. The
forces to engage and disengage have been optimized to
ensure ease of mating as well as to prevent damage to
PCB solder connections. OSX connectors are designed
for broad band performance, DC-6 GHz, and can be
utilized for future system upgrades without concerns for
performance degradation. M/A-COM OSX connectors are
fully mateable with standard MCX connectors and conform
to the CECC interface specifications.
OSX connectors are available in a broad range of standard
configurations for commercial applications. Tape and reel
packaging for OSX surface mount straight and right angle
PCB receptacles is available to facilitate high volume pick
and place manufacturing. OSX surface mount connectors
are designed to withstand infrared reflow, convection and
vapor phase soldering and provide a .254 mm (.010 in.)
standoff for optimal board cleaning. OSX plug and jack
PCB receptacles also offer a direct board to board solu-
tion providing a nominal 7.11mm (0.28in) separation.
The OSX connector series is a cost effective solution for
the challenging demands of today’s commercial market-
place. M/A-COM maintains an SPC controlled and ISO
9001 certified manufacturing environment to ensure uncom-
promising quality. Call your local M/A-COM sales office or
authorized distributor for more information or samples of
the OSX connector series.
