RoHS-compliant Type BR solderless LED socket is for quick termination of Bridgelux RS LEDs. Reportedly eliminates the need for complex metal clad printed circuit board assembly into a lighting fixture; provides ease of assembly in a fixture using hand tools; has poke-in wire termination method for 18 through 22 AWG solid wires, 18 through 20 AWG pre-bonded wires and 18 AWG stranded wires. Standoff posts position the solderless LED socket assembly onto the heat sink; four M3 or #4 screws are required. LED is retained in the socket housing with a slight press fit prior to mounting the assembly into the light fixture. Space is available for custom optical solutions; wire strain reliefs to prevent wire pullout after assembly; UV-resistant housing material for outdoor use to prevent housing discoloration. Socket is UL-recognized to UL 1977 for use in UL 8750 applications.

Zebra Gold 8000C is an interconnect device constructed from a low durometer silicone core. Is covered with 166 parallel rows of flat, gold-plated wires per inch. Connector can accommodate printed circuit boards with pad center spacing down to 0.020".

CR-5000 revision 13.0 design suite for electronics systems and printed circuit boards introduces new core technology for power integrity analysis along with an array of developments to accelerate process optimization and integration including more efficient DRC checking, improvements in hierarchical design, management of constraint data and more.

CFS conductive EMI foam shielding material improves quality and performance of die-cut enclosure gaskets. Is low pressure and manufactured in sheets that have a low-resistance polyester fabric surface and a resilient Nickel-Copper polyurethane foam center. Is for intricate die-cut finishing operations found in I/O panel, backplane and access panel applications. Gaskets offer a typical shielding effectiveness of 60dB between 10MHz-3GHz. Exhibits a compression load of 2.1 psi at 30% compression and has an operational temperature range from -40° to +156°F.
