The Micro Line - .050" Contact Spacing
The Cannon MICRO Series established the stan-
dards for performance and reliability in mircominia-
ture interconnects. Exceptionally versatile, MICRO
connectors are available in rectangular, circular, and
strip configurations, with 3 amp MICROPIN™/
MICROSOCkET™ contacts on .050(1.27) centers,
or with special arrangements of power and coaxial
contacts.
The heart of the Cannon MICROPIN/MICROSOCK-
ET contact system is a multi-element Twist Pin
Contact recessed with and insulating housing. The
rugged, cylindrical sockets are mounted in the
exposed half of the connector. When connector
halves are mated, the chamfered sockets are first
aligned by the connector body, then guide the spiral
MICROPIN contacts into proper and positive align-
ment, even under worst-case tolerance conditions.
This is Cannon's POS-A-LINE connectors design.
The multiple spring elements of the MICROPIN,
then under compression, form a multi-point contact
system of high mechanical and electrical integrity.
Contacts will provide a high degree of reliability
over hundreds of mating and unmating cycles, and
have proven themselves in applications that range
from commercial products to equipment that has
been landed on the moon.
• Contact rating - 3 amps max.
• Contacts centers - .050(1.27).
• Wire sizes - #24 thru #32 AWG, stranded or
solid.
• Contact termination - multiple indent crimp.
• Contact retention -fixed via epoxy.
• Contact materials and finish - Copper alloy,
gold-plated per MIL-G-45204, Type II, Grade C,
Class 1 over copper flash.
• Mating/unmating force - 8 oz. per contact,
max./0.5 oz. per contact min.

Micro-D Metal Shell - .050" Contact Spacing
MDM connectors are used in applications requiring
highly reliable, extremely small, lightweight connec-
tors with higher density contact configurations than
available in traditional rectangular connectors. They
are available in 8 shell sizes accommodating from 9
to 100 contacts, and special arrangements of power
and coaxial contacts.
These connectors are designed to meet the rapidly
increasing demands for an environmental, high per-
formance, rugged, moisture-sealed microminiature
connector. This connector employs size 24 MICRO-
MDM
PINª/MICROSOCKETª contacts on .050(1.27_
centers in a contact density identical to the stan-
dard MICRO-D connector series, but with these
additional features:
¥ Aluminum shells to provide greater strength,
prevent chipping, cracking or breaking, offer
electromagnetic (EMI) and RFI shielding.
¥ Silicone elastomer compression interfacial seal
to provide a moisture and humidity seal between
each contact and between contacts and shell.
