## Overview of the KURE-41PA-R The **KURE-41PA-R** is a specific electronic component, typically categorized as a **Board-to-Board (B2B) Connector** or a high-density interface connector, often manufactured by companies like **Kyocera (AVX)**. These components are designed for high-reliability connections in compact electronic devices. --- ### Technical Specifications Below are the typical technical characteristics associated with this series of connectors: | Feature | Description | | :--- | :--- | | **Component Type** | Plug / Header (Male) | | **Mounting Type** | Surface Mount (SMT) | | **Pitch** | Typically 0.5mm or 0.4mm (depending on specific sub-series) | | **Orientation** | Right Angle / Vertical | | **Contact Material** | Copper Alloy with Gold Plating | | **Housing Material** | LCP (Liquid Crystal Polymer) - Heat Resistant | | **Number of Positions** | Variable (indicated by specific digits in the full part number) | --- ### Key Electronic Functions 1. **Signal Integrity:** Designed to maintain low resistance and minimal signal interference, making them suitable for high-speed data transmission between PCBs. 2. **Mechanical Stability:** Features "friction lock" or "snap-in" mechanisms to ensure the connection remains secure even under vibration. 3. **Low Profile:** The "PA" designation often refers to a specific height profile, allowing for thinner device assemblies (e.g., smartphones, tablets, or wearable tech). --- ### Typical Applications * **Mobile Devices:** Connecting the main logic board to sub-boards (charging ports, camera modules). * **Display Panels:** Interfacing LCD/OLED drivers with the control board. * **Industrial Electronics:** Compact PLC modules or sensor arrays where space is at a premium. * **Automotive Infotainment:** Connecting display screens to the central processing unit. --- ### Design Considerations When integrating the **KURE-41PA-R** into a circuit design, engineers must consider: * **Reflow Soldering:** The LCP housing is designed to withstand standard lead-free reflow temperatures (approx. 260°C). * **Mating Cycles:** These connectors usually have a rated durability of 30 to 50 mating cycles. * **Current Rating:** Typically ranges from 0.3A to 0.5A per pin.
