Quick Reference Guide .050 CENTERLINE MICRO-MATCH CONNECTOR SERIES The TE Connectivity (TE) Micro-MaTch connector family, with its contact spacing of 1.27mm, offers a variety of wire-to-board and board-to-board interconnections. The Micro-MaTch contact helps prevent fretting corrosion, the traditional failure mode in tin-plated connections. Relative movements caused by vibrations/thermal expansion between male and female contacts are absorbed by an additional positioning spring in the female part. By preventing movements on the contact spot, a gas tight connection can make the Micro-MaTch contact spring system fretting corrosion resistant.

Due to an additional Male positioning spring in the female part, Contact Pin relative movements caused by vibrations Male Chamfer in Connector and thermal expansion between male two directions and female contacts are absorbed. By preventing movements on the contact spot, a gas tight connection is made. This contact Female spring system featuring the positioning Contact Spring spring, compensates positional tolerances Female Positioning Connector and provides the high contact force Spring required for tin plated contact systems. The Micro-MaTch contact spring system Solder Post is fretting corrosion resistant. AUTOMATION & CONTROL /// QUICK REFERENCE GUIDE PAGE 2
