The new generation AMP Pace card edge connector is based on 0.1 x 0.2in (2.54 x 5.08mm) centrelines and accepts 0.054-0.070in (1.3716-1.778mm) daughter cards. Eye-of-the-needle contacts accommodate simple, solder-free press fitting into a printed circuit board. As this product is flat-rock compatible, no special tooling is required.

Next generation AMP Pace card edge connectors are suitable for computer boards, communication equipment, industrial controls and machinery as well as test equipment and instrumentation.

The connectors are available in 10 to 60 dual position sizes and have the same overall dimensional envelope as current AMP Pace connectors.

Contacts are rated for 3A and 1000V AC withstand.

The housing is moulded from glass-filled polyester, and the contacts are phosphor bronze with nickel underplating and select gold finish.

Contact insertion averages 31N per contact.
