Ultra-Fit 3.5mm Pitch Connectors

Molex Ultra-Fit Power Connectors: Empowering Your Connections

Molex Ultra-Fit Power Connectors are designed to excel with a current rating of 14A and a voltage rating of 400V, making them suitable for demanding applications over an extensive temperature range from -40°C to +105°C. These connectors exhibit low contact resistance (20mΩ max), ensuring efficient electrical connections, and feature a minimum insulation resistance of 10MΩ, along with a withstanding voltage of 1800V AC/minute, guaranteeing reliable and safe performance.

Features of Molex Ultra-Fit:

1. Mechanically Keyed Color-Coding: With multiple color-coded options, Ultra-Fit connectors eliminate the risk of cross-mating, ensuring secure and error-free connections. The color coding provides a visual cue for proper mating, streamlining assembly.

2. Optional TPA (Terminal Position Assurance) Retainer: The inclusion of an optional TPA retainer guarantees that each terminal is fully seated within the housing. This reduces the likelihood of terminal back-out and retains terminal position, even if the primary retention feature fails.

3. Positive-Lock Housing with Anti-Snag Design: Ultra-Fit connectors feature a positive-lock housing with an anti-snag design to prevent accidental disengagement. The connectors emit an audible click during mating and protect the latch from damage caused by wire snags.

4. Six Independent Points of Contact: The terminal interface incorporates a split-box design with six independent points of contact. This ensures redundancy and secondary current paths for sustained long-term performance and reliability.

5. Inertia Enhanced Latch on Tangless Receptacles: The inertia-enhanced latch delivers a pronounced audible click during mating, reducing the likelihood of wire entanglement in the latch.

6. 17% Smaller Footprint: Ultra-Fit connectors offer a 17% smaller footprint compared to similar power connectors. This design provides significant PCB space savings, optimizes current density, and allows for more compact packaging without sacrificing current-carrying capabilities.

7. Ultra-Low Mating Force Terminal: These connectors feature ultra-low mating force terminals, minimizing operator fatigue and improving assembly compliance, particularly for high-circuit applications.

8. Fully Isolated Terminals: Each terminal is fully isolated, offering protection against potential damage to the header and receptacle terminals during handling and mating.

9. Multi-Color Cable Configurations: Ultra-Fit TPA Connectors are available with multi-color cable configurations, designed to support development and production programs. These multi-color cables ensure the correct connections, simplifying use.

10. Internal Locking Mechanism on Tangless Receptacles: Ultra-Fit connectors feature an internal locking mechanism to ensure that tangless terminals are securely locked in place.
