\"\"Clipzin\u2122 PCB connectors offer a unique semi-permanent way to mount one PCB on another<\/strong><\/h4>\n

 <\/p>\n

element14 introduces the new innovative Clipzin\u2122 Connector range as the exclusive distributor. Manufactured by EDAC and designed by OpenLX SP Ltd, the Clipzin\u2122 range initially targets the Raspberry Pi\u00ae Pico and PicoW, and Arduino\u00ae Connect modules, with more options to follow.<\/p>\n

Described as the edge connector for the IoT generation, Clipzin\u2122 eases manufacturing and facilitates modularisation, encouraging sustainability by promoting easy inservice upgrades and reusability. It allows customers to produce one design that can be customised for flexibility, and to offer variants, reducing design time and the need to stock many versions.<\/p>\n

Clipzin\u2122 enables rapid connection and disconnection of sensor, communication and compute modules, such as Raspberry Pi\u2019s new Pico. Designed for prototyping to production, a retention clip ensures that modules will not shake free after assembly or inservice, but allows PCBs to be easily swapped later if required. This makes it the ideal solution for developers, while also providing the security required for production.<\/p>\n

Prior to Clipzin\u2122, modules like PicoW required users to solder through-hole connectors to the PicoW as well as fitting a connector to their PCB. Clipzin\u2122 requires only a surface mount connector to be fitted to one PCB, greatly improving production efficiency.<\/p>\n
