Pico-Lock Connectors

Allows for more efficient use of space on circuit boards
The compact design of low-profile PicoLock connectors maximizes the efficient use of space on circuit boards and in tight electronic assemblies, enabling smaller, thinner and more compact electronic devices while maintaining robust electrical connections.

Helps carry larger amounts of electrical current
The high-current Pico-Lock connectors are engineered to provide secure and reliable electrical connections for applications requiring higher power transmission capabilities. Their design allows for efficient handling of up to 10.0A (AWG 16, 2-circuit) of current, making them well-suited for a variety of industrial, automotive and other high-power electronic applications.

Offers secure PCB retention and additional mechanical stability
The wide robust-fitting nails (solder tabs) provide a larger surface area for soldering onto the PCB that ensures a strong and secure mechanical connection between the connector and the PCB.

Provides additional mating retention and visual mating assurance
The top friction locks are designed to enhance the reliability and security of the connection.

Prevents mis-mating while guiding the housing into the header
The mating guide for polarization plays a critical role in preventing mis-mating, guiding the connector housing into the header, and enhancing the ease and reliability of connector assembly.

Provides smooth mating and pin-contact protection
The beveled header pin design enhances the ease of use, protects pins and contacts from damage, and improves the overall durability of the connectors.

Helps ensure secure mating retention with additional space savings compared to top-style locks
The side positive locks consist of small tabs on the sides of the connector housings that creates a secure mechanical connection. The reduced footprint of the connectors with side positive locks enables designers to achieve higher component density and more efficient use of available space.
