Features and Benefits

Design engineers require high-current connectors in small packages to optimize current density. These designers also need low-profile connectors that can be used in small spaces. The HyperQube PCB receptacles deliver 120.0A while requiring only a 12.30mm by 15.40mm PCB footprint, yielding an industry-leading power density rating of 63.4A per 1cm² of PCB real estate. The connector’s side-exit design eliminates cable-bend radius issues, making these connectors ideally suited for low-profile applications.

Designers want connectors that can be accurately mounted on PCBs or busbars. Also, manufacturing engineers look for connectors that can be easily removed and replaced if damaged so PCBs can be quickly reworked. ​Cable assemblies that can be easily matched to their appropriate PCB connector to reduce build time are needed as well. Unique polarizing/locating pegs for each HyperQube PCB receptacle color option ensure they are correctly positioned and properly oriented on the PCB or busbar. Matching the PCB receptacle color with the cable assembly plug color allows operators to mate cable assemblies to their assigned PCB receptacles. The PCB external thread designs allow damaged connectors to be quickly removed and replaced.

When energized components are exposed, safety is a major concern. Design engineers look for touch-proof/finger-safe connectors to address safety issues. As a safety feature, the socket, the crimp contact and the cable assembly’s stripped wire leads of mated HyperQube connectors are inaccessible, creating a touch-safe condition.

Excellent Space Savings and High Performance

HyperQube PCB receptacles incorporate Molex’s COEUR socket that generates minimal heat at the contact interface, allowing for high-current loads. These high-performance connectors also have an ultra-small PCB footprint, making them ideal for space-constrained applications.

Secure and Reliable Connections

The HyperQube interconnect system incorporates a positive-locking mechanism to ensure a secure and robust connection for continuity in critical operations. The mechanically keyed design on the PCB receptacles ensures proper mounting on the PCB, and the distinct color options help prevent mis-mating and simplify identification for streamlined installation during assembly.
