M83513/23-G01NP is a Micro-D metal shell connector designed for highly reliable, lightweight applications requiring microminiature connectors with high contact density. The connector features aluminum shells that provide greater strength, prevent chipping and cracking, and offer electromagnetic (EMI) and RFI shielding, with silicone elastomer compression interfacial seals providing moisture and humidity protection between contacts. It employs size 24 MICROPIN/MICROSOCKET contacts on 0.050" (1.27 mm) centers, available in 8 shell sizes accommodating from 9 to 100 contacts, with options for special arrangements of power and coaxial contacts. The connector is designed to meet demanding environmental and performance requirements for applications requiring extremely small, lightweight connectors with higher density contact configurations than traditional rectangular connectors.
