SSL - Discrete Wire IDC
Series 9177
The 917X series of surface mount Insulation Displacement Connectors (IDC)
were developed to meet the harsh automotive and industrial market
applications for connecting individual wires directly to a PCB ranging from 14
AWG to 28 AWG. This industry proven contact system has been tested to
automotive levels of shock, vibration, and temperature cycling to prove their
reliability and robustness. The simplicity of inserting a wire into the connector
with a small tool allows a wide range of devices to be connected to the PCB
without soldering. In SSL applications specifically, these connectors are used to
bring power and signal onto the PCB or are used to daisy chain multiple boards
together in a long string. While the IDC contact provides a gas-tight connection
to conductor of the wire, the housing has been designed to grab the insulation
of the wire to provide a positive strain relief even in the harshest conditions. In
case of repair, the wires can be removed and replace up to three times.
The 9177 series accepts 14 AWG to 20 AWG wires with an insulation diameter
ranging from 2.75mm to 4.25mm. These dual contact connectors support a
15 amp current rating with two large SMT solder tails per wire to provide
maximum stability on the PCB. Available in 1p-3p configuration, these
connectors can be end stackable for higher pin counts.
