Kyocera launches high-speed transmission connectors

Kyocera has launched 0.5 mm-pitch flexible printed circuit (FPC) and flat flexible cable (FFC) electronic connectors with improved quality assurance (QA) checks – both visual and automated optical inspections (AOI) – to prevent misalignment.

Kyocera’s new 6892 Series connectors also feature an operating range from -40°C to +125°C and high-speed transmission making them ideal for automobile applications.

The new connectors are available globally in August 2018.

There is increasing demand for connectors offering high-speed transmission capability to be used for in-vehicle infotainment, vehicle-mounted cameras, and radars, as well as reliability and optimal performance under harsh environments such as vibration and extreme temperatures.

Kyocera’s connectors correspond to the high-speed transmission interfaces of V-by-One HS and CalDriCon, The V-by-One HS reaches up to 3.75 Gbps maximum speed.
