Z-Carbon connector

Z-Carbon Connectors consist of carbon-filled layers of silicone rubber separated by non-conductive silicone layers. When mated and clamped between the LCD glass and PCB, Z-Carbon Connectors provide a robust and reliable connection. Due to the silicone construction of Z-Carbon Connectors, they conform to the contact surfaces of the mating substrates to create a gasket-like seal that withstands environmental conditions.

In addition, the elasticity of Z-Carbon Connectors provides superior performance in applications that require resilience to shock and vibration. The use of zero insertion force connectors requires that line centers match on connected surfaces. The connection densities of 100, 140 and 250 connections per inch of provides redundant contact in most applications. This fine line spacing also reduces the potential for shorting adjacent contacts. These low-cost connectors are available in custom sizes to accommodate the specific needs of your application. If necessary, we can offer same day prototype service for sizes in our normal working range!
