High-Height Spring Fingers

TE Connectivity’s spring fingers help to protect sensitive devices from EMI noise and provide connection to ground

Image of TE Connectivity AMP's Higher Height Spring Fingers TE Connectivity’s (TE) high-height spring fingers offer an expanded portfolio of PCB universal ground contacts in higher dimensions than the rest of the portfolio. The portfolio supports a wide array of design needs from 0.8 mm to 7 mm, helping to protect sensitive devices from EMI noise and providing connection to ground. With a high current capacity and robust design features, TE spring fingers can support a diverse array of applications including consumer products, IoT, automotive, industrial, and appliances.

Benefits

  • High uncompressed height extends from 3.8 mm to 7 mm, expanding an already robust portfolio and greatly adding design flexibility by expanding distance/clearance requirements for different applications
  • Provides a cost-effective connection to ground while providing EMI shielding to sensitive components
  • Available in pre-loaded type, C type, and box type, allowing for versatility in PCB layout
  • Robust design elements, including a wide cantilever to resist lateral force and dimples on the contact to enhance contact force
  • Enabling pick-and-place design, high-height spring fingers support an automated production line
