product data sheet STAX LD STAX LD Connector Test Kit STAX LD Connector Test Kit 04/06 3-1773443-1 DESCRIPT DESCRIPTION ION The STAX LD elastomeric connector technology represents the culmination of over 25 years of experience in manufacturing and developing low resistance layered elastomeric connectors. STAX LD connectors provide the best combination of electrical performance, reliability and durability of any type of elastomeric connector on the market. STAX connectors consist of alternating layers of conductive and non-conductive silicone. These layers are typically 0.064mm thick on 0.127mm centers and make redundant surface-to-surface connection when deflected between two mated PC Boards with mirror- image pad patterns. Hundreds of millions of our STAX family of connectors have been used to connect printed circuit boards, flex circuits, Chip-On-Glass LCD modules and components within space-constrained products such as mobile phones, pagers, PDAs and disk drives. In order for prospective users to see for themselves how well STAX LD connectors perform, we have STAX LD test kits available. The kit contains the same STAX LD elastomer, PCBs, holder, and hardware used in our qualification testing.
