Spring Contacts to Cover 0.5 mm to 3.1 mm PCB Spacing

The GCT range of SMT spring contacts are perfect for power transfer, grounding, and antenna applications and are shock tested to 49 G.

As electronic devices become more compact and complex, the need for low-profile interconnections between PCBs has increased. Stacking PCBs is a common approach in high-density designs, enabling modularity and reducing space requirements. One effective method for interconnecting stacked PCBs is using SMT-mounted spring contacts.

Spring contacts offer a flexible, dependable, and space-efficient solution for modern electronic designs. By carefully considering factors such as contact force, alignment, and environmental conditions, engineers can ensure optimal performance and longevity of their interconnect systems. As electronic devices continue to evolve, spring contacts will play an increasingly vital role in enabling high-density, modular PCB designs.
