See affected parts list: PCN-10624-Affected-Parts
Change Description
There are four primary changes which make up this design improvement.
1) The current two-piece unbonded insulator will become a one-piece unibody design, unless otherwise noted; and the contact retention mechanism will change from a system captivating
contacts between two molding halves to the concurrently qualified press-in contact system.
2) The alignment bar (when used) will be shorter in length than the existing version.
3) Right angle PWB tail contacts (where applicable) will have a larger bend radius and will continue to conform to all requirements.
4) Solder cup contact termination lengthened.
