Frequently Asked Questions
What contact plating does the BBL-130-G-E use, and how does it affect electrical performance?
The BBL-130-G-E uses gold (20 µin) over nickel (50 µin) on both mating and termination contacts. This heavy gold plating provides contact resistance typically below 10 mΩ and enables thousands of mating cycles without significant degradation, making it the preferred finish for high-reliability board stacking connectors in test equipment and defense electronics applications.
How long is the BBL-130-G-E body, and how many positions does it provide?
The BBL-130-G-E has a body length of 3 inches (76.2 mm) and provides 30 positions on a 2.54 mm (0.100 inch) pitch. This single-row configuration spans the full 3-inch length, making it suitable for long-edge board stacking in backplane assemblies, single-board computers, and industrial controller cards requiring a high pin count along one PCB edge.
What is the typical lead time for the BBL-130-G-E, and is it RoHS compliant?
The BBL-130-G-E has a factory lead time of approximately 1 week, which is shorter than many precision machined connectors. It carries a Pb-free (RoHS-compliant) code, confirming that the connector meets the European Union's Restriction of Hazardous Substances Directive for electronics sold in regulated markets globally. Distributor stock availability can further reduce delivery time.
Why choose the machined contact design of the BBL-130-G-E over stamped-and-formed alternatives?
The BBL-130-G-E uses machined contacts, which offer tighter pin-to-pin dimensional tolerances (typically ±0.05 mm versus ±0.1 mm for stamped contacts) and higher beam stiffness. This precision is critical for long 30-position board stacking headers where cumulative pitch error can misalign mating connectors. Machined contacts also support a higher number of mating cycles — often exceeding 500 cycles — before contact resistance rises above acceptable limits.
