| Description | Betaflex connectors are sockets that connect multichip modules and high density ceramic packages to printed circuit boards. They incorporate shape memory alloy technology, developed under NASA contract. Aimed at computer, telecommunication, avionics and military markets, the connectors enable designers to gain up to 40 percent more board space and provide 100 signal lines to the inch. When the nickel titanium element in the connector is heated by a low voltage power supply, the connector's spring is opened allowing the circuit board to be inserted with zero force. This makes assembly easier and more reliable. Beta Phase was taken over by Mopex, BPS and currently manufactures these connectors. |
