KYOCERA AVX 9159-000 Series Card Edge Connector
Available in 2 through 5 positions
The KYOCERA AVX 9159 series of Board-to-Board interconnect system allows two PCBs to be mated end-to-end creating strips of LED lighting. This product is designed specifically for the unique Solid State Lighting (SSL) market requiring coplanar (horizontal-to-horizontal) PCB mating.
The 1-Piece Card Edge connector was developed to provide a reliable, low cost and simple means of connecting multiple PCBs together. The single stamped contact has dual contact beams to guarantee a high contact force on standard 1.6mm PCBs.
These connectors are available in 2 through 5 positions and are on 2.0mm pitch centers to provide a 3 amp continuous rating.

When designing LED solutions for traditional bulb replacements, a complex power supply is often needed to handle AC to DC conversion and dimming. To easily conform to the shape of a standard light bulb, it is preferable to mount this power supply hardware perpendicular to the LED lighting module. This maximizes volumetric efficiency while eliminating any sources of shadow from the illumination PCB.
To meet this demand, KYOCERA AVX’s 9159 Series single piece inverted through board card edge connector, mate perpendicular PCBs to a top mounted fiberglass or metal core PCB from the bottom side. They also offer added design functionality, such as color selection or custom control lines.
