ACES 50308 Series 2.0mm Pitch Wire-to-Board Wafer Connector | SMT, Right-Angle, Industrial-Grade

Meta Description: Explore the ACES 50308 Series, a robust 2.0mm pitch wire-to-board wafer connector family. Featuring SMT mounting, right-angle (R/A) design, and pin counts from 2 to 16 (including 14-pin model 50308-0140N-002). Ideal for industrial controls, power supplies, and automotive electronics requiring reliable, high-current connections.

Product Overview

The ACES 50308 Series is a family of robust, 2.0mm pitch Wire-to-Board (WTB) wafer connectors engineered for applications demanding higher current capacity, superior mechanical stability, and reliable performance in demanding environments. Featuring a surface-mount (SMT) design with a right-angle interface, this series is an optimal solution for industrial control boards, power modules, automotive electronics, and other devices where space optimization and connection integrity are critical.

This series offers flexible circuit options ranging from 2 to 16 positions, providing designers with the versatility to match specific project requirements. Key models include the 50308-0140N-002 (14-pin) connector, ensuring a perfect fit for various connectivity needs.

Key Features & Benefits

• Industrial-Grade 2.0mm Pitch: The larger pitch provides enhanced creepage and clearance distances, supporting higher voltage and current ratings compared to finer-pitch connectors, making it safer and more reliable for power transmission.

• Secure SMT & Right-Angle Design: The surface-mount (SMT) termination offers strong solder joint integrity for vibration resistance. The side/rear right-angle (S/R R/A) mating direction allows cables to exit parallel to the PCB, saving vertical space and simplifying wire harness routing inside enclosures.

• High-Reliability Wafer Construction: Built as a durable wafer connector, it ensures consistent insulation and pin alignment, delivering stable electrical performance over long-term use.

• Comprehensive Pin Count Selection: Available in a wide range of circuit sizes to fit diverse designs: 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 12, 13, 14, 15, and 16 positions.

• Optimized for Manufacturing: The SMT design is compatible with automated pick-and-place and reflow soldering processes, facilitating efficient, high-volume assembly.
