board-level products

PCB designers benefit highly from HARTING products.

PCB designers have a challenging job, and they rely strongly on suppliers of board-level products to bring their designs to the market. HARTING Canada knows this. Its DIN 41 612 connectors are popular solutions for these designers, as well as its board-to-board, stackable har-flex series.

HARTING recommends consideration of several points when choosing a supplier for board-level products, including continued support, a broad portfolio, product evolution, and thorough testing.

Cost-effective, proven, and reliable connectors

First, a company needs to know that the supplier will offer continued support during product selection. This is an advantage of working with HARTING, which sees a bright future for the DIN 41 612 series and will continue to support customers. This line has been a standard for decades, with cost-effective, proven, and reliable connectors, each with a service life of at least 20 years. Customers will continue to incorporate DIN 41 612 into new products, as HARTING will be there with the necessary board-level products and application support.

Next, users need a broad portfolio from which to choose, to get the best solution. DIN 41 612 has evolved into a wide portfolio that increases flexibility for designers; the series popularity has led industries to demand variations compatible with their individual requirements. HARTING’s commitment to a broad range of board-level units enables customers to reap the benefits of this connector series while meeting their applications’ needs.

The supplier should also evolve products to meet current market trends. While the DIN 41 612 series suits many applications perfectly, some engineers require miniature and stackable connectors. This is why HARTING developed the har-flex series – SMT-mountable connectors based on a 1.27-millimetre pitch. This series offers the same robustness, reliability, and long service life as DIN 41 612 does; although not designed for high speed, har-flex can achieved data rates of six gigabytes.

Finally, customers must rely on thorough testing through the supplier when it launches a new product. har-flex, in particular, has been proven through rigorous testing to be reliable.

All these reasons illustrate why HARTING is the ideal supplier for PCB designers.
