Medical applications require lightweight, high density microminiature connectors in critical operating systems. Winchester offers medical device OEMs a trusted source from which they can build competitive advantages in devices that enable life-saving therapies. We create value while mitigating risk through expert design and manufacturing, reliable end-to-end solutions, and a deeply consultative approach that delivers what customers need.

Surface mount components are a common choice for densely populated circuit boards. Through hole components go through the entire board and eliminate the possibility of adding components or connectors to the opposite side of the board. Ulti-Mate Connector offers many different types of surface mount technology (or SMT) connectors for many different applications.

PCB Connectors enable electronic communications. Signals processed on a PCB require a method to leave the board to another system. This is commonly done using a PCB connector. Ulti-Mate Connector carries a wide variety of interface options and a deep offering of variations. For example, our Micro-D PCB product offering has 8 sizes for 12 different layout styles and orientations. In addition to the M83513 slash sheets 16 through 27, Ulti-Mate also offers various other styles that have become popular for many customers.

Right angle PCB connectors are a common choice for designs that require a 90 degree exit, typically to a panel or enclosure. Right angle PCB connectors allow the PCB signals to exit parallel to the surface of the boards. Ulti-Mate Connector's Micro-D PCB product offering has several right angle through hole PCB connectors. Ulti-Mate Connector is QPL'd for M83513 and also offers many other standard designs.

Electronic systems and subsystems have continuously shrunk in size and weight while still requiring high-performance specifications. Consequently, surface-mounted connectors have evolved in kind, from Military Circular connectors and D-Subminiature to Micro-Ds to today’s top technology: Nano-Ds. Despite the abundance of suppliers in the market, quality and production issues have persisted as they try to balance size constraints vs performance requirements.

The following Article was written by one of our senior members on the capabilities of our much smaller, yet consistent micro and nano connectors. Explore and see why choosing the right connector at the early stages is crucial to a manufacturing projects.

This following Ulti-Mate Connector white paper provides insight how using the flat edge of beryllium cooper stock instead of round results in improved contact consistency and mechanical strength of the compliant pin and socket designs. It is well established that a flat contact for Micro and Nano Connectors are more predictably formed for consistent processing in assembly.

When your design requires high density, high grade .025” pitch interconnect to support your criteria, there is a lot to consider when specifying a “Nano” size connector. Not the least of which is choosing a component that will reduce or eliminate costly delays, redesign and rework. The following whitepaper offers some practical insight that will assist you and your team in making your best, most reliable interconnect choices.
