PND Connector Purpose: JST is proud to Introduce the PND disconnectable crimp style connector. Responding to the needs of the ever expanding market, this high-density, wire-to-board, through-hole type connector with positive locks is newly developed enabling the user to achieve excellent results by withstanding unexpected external forces.

PND Connector Problem: Many applications require a disconnectable, double-row crimp style connector designed to meet the demand for high-density, low insertion force connections that offer engineers design flexibility. Script: The finger-friendly PND series wire-to board connector system, with a current rating of 3A AC/DC using 22 AWG wire and a voltage rating of 250V AC/DC, are double-row 2.0mm(.079”) pitch, molded in a 94V-0 Nylon 66 with an operating temperature range of -25ºC to +85ºC. Designed to consider the risk of solder bridging, this through- hole 2.0mm (.079”) pitch, dual-row {5.0mm (.197”) pitch between rows} construction allows for high-density mounting and is provided RoHS compliant.

PND Connector disconnectable crimp style contacts Script: The PND contacts are designed to accommodate a range of 22 to 28 AWG wire, are tin-plated over a copper alloy base material. The low insertion force construction ensures stable electrical contact and low contact resistance at all times even when subjected to vibration and distortion.

PND Housing Script: The PND housings are available in even numbered sizes from 8 to 40 circuits, rated 94V-0 nylon 66 and incorporate a secure, positive lock when mating with the PCB mounted headers. The edges of the housing are designed with rounded, chamfer edges for effortless mating cycles. The finger-friendly design provides easy insertion and extraction from the mating PCB headers.

PND Shrouded Header SCRIPT: The through-hole, top-entry (straight), fully-shrouded headers have four high walls to prevent improper mating and the intrusion of flux and other contaminants. Available in even number circuits from 8 to 40, the already RoHS compliant headers are made of glass-filled nylon 66 rated 94V-0. The posts are copper-undercoated copper alloy with reflow treated tin-plating for maximum effectiveness for deterring whisker growth. The headers are offered with and without mounting / PCB positioning bosses.

The PND connectors are engineering & manufacturing friendly Script: Applicators are available for the semi-automatic and fully automatic termination equipment normally found in the manufacturing environment as well as standard hand tools for engineering, lab and pre-production requirements.
