Hirose has introduced the BM25 series of hybrid power and signal FPC-to-Board connectors to provide a high power connectivity solution for miniature applications.
The BM25 range of connectors consists of plugs and receptacles to allow a flat printed circuit (FPC) to board connection, the parallel stack height of the connectors is extremely low-profile at only 0.7mm high in mated condition.
The hybrid design of the connectors features signal contacts rated at 0.3A (amps) and power contacts rated at 10A (amps). This reduces the requirement for separate power and signal connectors saving cost and PCB space.
PCB Space saving
Although the dimensions are compact, performance is not compromised, and the parts are able to offer highly reliable mechanical connection. This is due to the provision of unique four-point contacts and a long effective mating length of 0.14mm for the signal contact. Guide ribs are also incorporated into the housing body, providing for a wide self-alignment range of 0.48mm in the X-direction and 0.46mm in the Y-direction and permitting a smoother mating operation. In addition the robust housing incorporates a metal guide structure to prevent any damage due to incorrect mating and multipoint metal locks are provided to increase retention force and prevent any unintended un-mating due to drop impact or other mechanical shock.
Robust design
Unique metal guide mitigates housing damage due to incorrect mating, failure strength 70N.
Due to its compact size and robust construction the BM25 series is suitable for use in a wide range of applications such as point-of-sale terminals, IoT devices, instrumentation, sensors, remote monitoring equipment, wearable and portable handheld devices.

STMicroelectronics has unveiled the ST1VAFE3BX, the first dual-function biosensor combining a vertical analog front-end (vAFE) for detecting biopotential signals and a 3-axis ultralow-power accelerometer for motion tracking.
Panasonic have one of the widest ranges of Polymer capacitors available in the industry. Polymer capacitors have excellent frequency characteristics due to their ultra-low ESR (Equivalent Series Resistance) values; they exhibit low impedance near their resonance point which reduces AC ripple in power circuits.
