FLEXSTRIP® JUMPERS is a flexible interconnection system from Germany Würth Elektronik, which can achieve multi-conductor board-to-board connection without stripping, cutting to length or solder preparation. It can be used as an alternative to conventional point-to-point wiring, providing a comprehensive range of board-to-board jumpers that can be repeatedly flexed without failure. Leveraging industry-leading improvements in contact reliability, low height profile, compatibility with auto insertion equipment, and ease of assembly, FLEXSTRIP® JUMPERS provides an optimal solution for a diverse range of applications that require a reliable high performance interconnect. Its performance benefits are key to the flat conductor construction achieved by a special manufacturing process. Round conductors rolled flat provide unrivalled flexibility and resistance against vibration and high flexing cycles. Conventional round pins at each end ensure simplified assembly and soldering. The smooth notchless transition from the flat conductor to the round contact pin guarantees a termination area that is break-proof and free of stress. Strong vibrations can generate frequencies that can lead to resonance in the structure of equipment and the printed circuit board. For this reason, a high degree of stress often occurs at the termination points in particular, which are typically the weakest links in the system. Such stresses are frequently responsible for damage to the contact pins. FLEXSTRIP® JUMPERS effectively prevents damage to the contact pins.
