What are the key features of QTT-118-01-L-T?

  • 54-position configuration at 2.00 mm pitch in a 1.432" body for high-current board stacking power distribution
  • 10 µ" gold-over-nickel mating contact finish ensuring low-resistance, corrosion-resistant power connections
  • Phosphor bronze contact material providing superior spring force and consistent mating retention across mating cycles
  • Tin-over-nickel termination finish on solder tails ensuring reliable reflow-soldered board attachment

What is QTT-118-01-L-T used for?

The QTT-118-01-L-T is designed for board stacking power plane applications where 54 contacts at a 2.00 mm pitch distribute power and ground between a main board and a mezzanine card. It is commonly deployed in server computing platforms, power management modules, and industrial computing systems where high current capacity and reliable multi-contact power distribution across a 1.432" connector body are required. The phosphor bronze contacts and gold-over-nickel finish ensure long service life in demanding board-stack environments.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the pitch and contact count of the QTT-118-01-L-T, and how long is the connector body?

The QTT-118-01-L-T provides 54 positions at a 2.00 mm pitch within a connector body length of 1.432 inches. This 2.00 mm pitch is well-suited for power plane applications where wider contact spacing allows higher current per contact compared to finer-pitch signal connectors, making it practical for distributing power across 54 pins between stacked boards.

Why is the 10 µ" gold-over-nickel mating finish on the QTT-118-01-L-T important for power plane reliability?

The 10 µ" gold plating on nickel provides a durable, corrosion-resistant contact surface on all 54 mating contacts, ensuring stable low-resistance connections even after repeated mating cycles. For power plane applications at 2.00 mm pitch, this gold finish prevents oxide buildup that could increase contact resistance and cause voltage drops, maintaining reliable power delivery to mezzanine boards over the connector's service life.

In which board stacking system designs is the QTT-118-01-L-T most commonly used?

The QTT-118-01-L-T is most commonly used in server mezzanine card interfaces, high-performance computing power delivery modules, and industrial control backplanes where 54 power and ground contacts at 2.00 mm pitch are needed to deliver current between a baseboard and a daughtercard. Its phosphor bronze contacts and board-stacking connector design are optimized for stable power distribution in systems with multi-amp per contact requirements.

How does the phosphor bronze contact material of the QTT-118-01-L-T benefit repeated mating operations?

Phosphor bronze provides higher spring force and better fatigue resistance than standard brass, allowing the 54 contacts of the QTT-118-01-L-T to maintain consistent normal force and low contact resistance over hundreds of mating cycles at the 2.00 mm pitch. This material choice is especially valuable in power plane connectors where contact degradation from repeated insertion and extraction would increase resistance and compromise current-carrying performance.
