Abstract :
It is considered that, in today´s high-density surface-mount-connector applications, the connector, contacts, and printed-circuit-board characteristics must be blended to provide a highly reliable mechanical and electrical system. Standard connector-evaluation sequences do not properly address the applications and needs of the high-density surface-mount-connector user. The paper presents evaluation sequences based on actual or intended usage of the connector and performance data to support the use of the Bendix bristle-brush contact in the particular high-performance connector system
