Product Description
This 16-pin female FRC/IDC connector is a press-mount insulation displacement connector designed for fast, solder-free termination onto standard 1.27mm pitch flat ribbon cables. The 2.54mm (0.1") pin pitch ensures universal compatibility with standard box headers, PCB header pins, and development boards. Simply press the connector onto the ribbon cable using a bench vice or IDC crimping tool - the sharp contacts pierce through the cable insulation to create a reliable, gas-tight electrical connection without stripping or soldering.
The grey housing features a strain-relief clamp that locks the ribbon cable securely in place, preventing accidental disconnection during operation. A polarization notch on the connector body ensures correct orientation when mating with shrouded box headers, eliminating the risk of reverse insertion in critical applications.
Key Features
- Solder-Free Termination: Insulation displacement technology - no wire stripping, no soldering. Just press and connect.
- 2.54mm Standard Pitch: Universally compatible with standard 0.1" header pins, box headers, and breadboard-friendly layouts.
- 16-Pin Configuration: 2 rows x 8 pins - perfect for multi-signal bus connections, GPIO breakouts, and data interfaces.
- Integrated Strain Relief: Built-in cable clamp secures the ribbon cable and prevents mechanical stress on contacts.
- Polarization Key: Alignment notch ensures correct mating orientation with shrouded box headers.
- Durable Construction: High-quality thermoplastic housing with tin-plated contacts for long-lasting, low-resistance connections.
- Rapid Assembly: Terminate dozens of cables in minutes - ideal for batch production and prototyping workflows.
- Wide Temperature Range: Reliable operation from -25 degreesC to +85 degreesC for industrial and embedded applications.
