If a non-standard solution is required, it is much more cost effective to modify a Mill-Max Target Connector than a spring pin assembly. Mill-Max Target Connectors are a very convenient solution to applications requiring a conductive extension from the surface of one module up to another. These connectors provide a convenient mating surface to connect with Mill-Max Spring-Loaded Connectors. In addition Mill-Max offers Mating Target Connectors for Mill-Max Spring-Loaded Connectors.

100" (2,54mm) mounting grid - low and high profile surface mount styles available on carrier tape & a thru-hole style for manual placement. Their high durability, tolerance and versatile application make them a preferred connector for intelligent electronic designs. Maximum Range: Six families of single and double row strip assemblies for. Pogo Pins (Spring Loaded Pins) are used in almost every kind of electronic device today.CFE Pogo Pin contacts provide a reliable electrical connection in the most rigorous environments. Our main product is spring loaded contact and pogo pin connector. A Pogo pin is a device used in electronics to establish a connection between two printed circuit boards. Maximum Endurance: 1,000,000 cycles and still electrically silent. Description 30A high current pogo pins spring loaded contacts supply.Maximum Stability: Tested to a minimum of 50g shock and 10g vibration with no spikes >1μs and >1.15V with 0.5A applied.Maximum Continuity: Precision-machined gold-plated components and a low-resistance spring maintain a consistent electrical path.This can help avoid scratching up the test point too much.All pogo pin connectors have the following characteristics: Yes, we use pointed for vias, and round for pads.

Otherwise, it can sometimes just come back as a line in the top copper. One tip though - if you want a space milled out, it's a good idea to include a text object on the dimension layer with the words "ROUTE OUT" in the space you want removed. Most fab houses don't have a problem with strangely shaped cutouts. We have found with our fab house, this is the correct size gap between board-under-test dimension line and frame dimension line. Or you can wait to do it later.Ĥ) make sure all lines (both the reference and dimension) are 0.008 inch wideĦ) move the frame dimension lines out one alt click (0.016 inch). At this point you can either draw in the "corner cutouts" as squares or circles. When we draw the frame layer, we follow these steps:ġ) copy the outline dimensions of the board-under-test into your testbed design(frame layer).Ģ) move the board-under-test outline to the reference layer.ģ) draw the frame lines on the dimension layer directly on top of the board-under-test reference lines. We now call the top layer the "frame layer" cause that's a little more clear when designing waffle-top testbeds. Pogopins are these nifty spring loaded pins: We have started to put a lot of effort and design into test jigs that use pogo pins. But what do we do if we need to test 400? It becomes really important that the test jig be reliable, and more than anything, be fast! The pogobed has made this much easier, allowing you to push the board down on a set of pogopins. When testing 5-25 units, this method works pretty good. The problem that we found is that these hacked together test jigs (who were created by surly engineers who were never around) would often wear out or break. It actually doesn't take much to create a temporary electrical connection. Sounds like it would never work, but it does quite well if you have all the interface pins on one side of the board. In order to make a temporary connection to his compass module board, he has to hold it in place on a line of male headers, then apply a slight pressure down to ensure a good connection. Nick is using a modified Olimex LPC Dev board to test his HMC compass modules. Above, you can see an example of an old testbed.
