TE Connectivity Launches Next-Generation 0.4mm Fine
Pitch Board-to-Board Connector for Slimmer Devices

TE Connectivity (TE) today launched a novel 0.4mm fine pitch board-to-board (BtB) connector featuring a stack height of 0.6mm to meet increased demand for thinner and smaller consumer electronics devices.
