Stacking connector surface
mounts both sides
A novel SMT board stacking connector from Zierick Manufacturing Corp surface mounts to both the bottom and top of a PCB
Using capillary action, the new connector provides a superior solder joint strength, and thus a more reliable connection than through-hole pins. The board stacking connectors are self-centring and offer coplanarity within 0.001in, eliminating alignment problems. They use minimal real estate, allowing additional components to be placed on the PCB and providing design flexibility.
