Vertical Headers
FEATURES AND SPECIFICATIONS
Micro-Fit 3.0 Family Offers Press-Fit Headers For High-Density
Power and Signal Applications
The Micro-Fit 3.0, CPI (Compliant Pin Interface) and Micro-Fit 3.0, BMI CPI
(Blind-Mate version with Compliant Pin Interface) are vertical header product
extensions featuring press-fit PC tails. These headers are designed for high-
density applications where press-fit terminations are required. The CPI products
are appropriate for both power and signal uses as they can carry up to 5.0A of
current per circuit.
The standard Micro-Fit 3.0, CPI headers incorporate a compact housing that
mates with standard wire-mount housings and crimp terminals for wire-to-board
applications.
The Micro-Fit 3.0, BMI CPI headers feature a funnel entry to guide the mating
receptacle into place. Micro-Fit 3.0, BMI headers mate exclusively with BMI
components, which include panel-mount receptacles with crimp terminals and
PCB receptacles for wire-to-board and board-to-board applications.
Features and Benefits
■ CPI style (press-fit) pins require no soldering to the PCB
■ Designed for multiple board thicknesses of 2.36mm (.093”) or greater
■ Dual-row vertical headers available in 2-24 circuits for the standard version
and 4-24 circuits for the BMI (blind-mate) version
■ Rated up to 5.0A of current for both power and signal applications in wire-to-
board and board-to-board configurations
■ Fully polarized with positive locks for proper mating
■ Fully isolated contacts for electrical and mechanical integrity
