ACES 50429 Series: High-Density 1.0mm Pitch Wire-to-Board Wafer Connector

Meta Description: Discover the ACES 50429 Series, a compact 1.0mm pitch Wire-to-Board wafer connector. Featuring SMT mounting, vertical (S/T) mating, and options for 3 to 8 circuits. Ideal for space-constrained applications in consumer electronics, IoT devices, and portable equipment requiring reliable, low-profile interconnections.

Product Overview

The ACES 50429 Series represents a high-density, board-space-saving solution for modern electronics. This 1.0mm pitch Wire-to-Board (WTB) wafer connector is engineered with a vertical (Straight/Top) mating direction and Surface-Mount Technology (SMT), making it an excellent choice for applications where Z-axis height and PCB real estate are at a premium. With its reliable electrical performance and compatibility with fine wire gauges (AWG #28-32), it is perfectly suited for data, signal, and low-current power connections in compact devices.

Key Part Number: 50429-0060N-001 (6-circuit model)

Key Features & Benefits

• Ultra-Compact 1.0mm Pitch: Enables high-density PCB layouts, allowing for more connections in a smaller area, which is critical for miniaturized consumer and portable electronics.

• Low-Profile SMT Design: The Surface-Mount (SMT) termination and a compact product height of 4.25mm minimize the vertical space required, contributing to slimmer product designs.

• Vertical (S/T) Mating Interface: The Side/Rear Straight/Top (S/R S/T) mating direction allows for direct vertical cable connection to the board, optimizing internal layout in confined spaces.

• Secure and Reliable: Features an integrated outer locking mechanism with the compatible housing (50430 series) to ensure a secure, vibration-resistant connection.

• Fine Wire Compatibility: Designed to work seamlessly with AWG #28, #30, and #32 wires, providing flexibility for various current-carrying and flexibility requirements.
