PART DESCRIPTION Press-Fit Technology has been gaining momentum amongst manufacturers for enabling new designs that exhibit very consistent performance and higher reliability than traditional solder joints. The AVX Capacitor Holder is a PBT plastic cradle that holds an electrolytic capacitor and allows the end user one simple press fit operation to connect the capacitor to their printed circuit board. The Capacitor is held in the connector by an innovative design that allows the natural spring qualities of the material to lock the capacitor in place. The leads from the capacitor are held in place with an IDC contact that is then mated to the board with the compliant pin side of the contact. A locking lid feature is used to hold the leads and the capacitor firmly in place.
