KYOCERA AVX expanded its robust and extremely user-friendly 9155-800 Series vertical-mate, 2.0mm-pitch battery connectors with the addition of new seven- and eight-position models to satisfy customer demand for higher signal and current capabilities. These new additions also further expand its 9155 family of battery connectors, which already offered the broadest selection of standard battery connectors on the market. 9155-800 Series battery connectors are robust, user-friendly, and ideal for industrial, medical, & consumer electronics.

KYOCERA AVX's 9155-800 Series vertical themate, 2.0mm thepitch battery connectors feature a unique contact geometry that deflects cleanly when a module, mating connector, or PCB is vertically pushed into position, enabling full vertical engagement in pluggable modules without the risk of contact damage. Traditional battery connectors require users to engage the contacts before rotating the mating module or PCB into position to reliably prevent contact damage. The 9155-800 Series does not.

In fact, users can mate these connectors from any angle without inadvertently damaging the contacts. The 9155-800 series vertical-mate, 2. 0mm-pitch battery connectors feature an extremely generous sweeping beam contact design and an anti-snag feature that reliably protects the contacts from damage during deflection, and when static as well. Additional features of the 9155 family include ultra-reliable and robust gold-plated BeCu contacts proven to provide high-integrity connections in harsh environments for up to 15,000 mating operations and tape and reel packaging compatible with automated processes.

The range can also be customized to suit specific application requirements.
