RC SERIES RIBBON CONNECTORS
The RC Series connectors are rectangular multicontact
connectors provided with ribbon contacts and are de-
signed to be mounted directly on PCBs. Suitable as
the interface for measuring instruments and printers.
14, 24, 36 and 50-contact models are available.
General
1. Direct dip soldering on PCB enables convenient
parallel (RC10 type) and vertical (RC20 type) con-
nection with cable plug and use of mass termina-
tion technology from PCB to equipment panels.
2. IDC Plug in combination with hood with grounding
insert meets FCC requirements. (RC30 type)
3. Ideally suited for printer interface (Conforms to
CENTRONICS standard.) (RC30 type)
4. Can be easily connected to a standard ribbon
cable, having a cable IDC pitch of 1.27mm. (stan-
dard) (RC30 type)
5. Easy to connect cables by following the same IDC
termination procedure and connecting press as
used for our other ribbon cable connectors. (RC30
type)
6. Authorized by UL
Features
Interfaces for computers, peripherals and terminals, communication equipment, and printers.

RC10(F) SERIES CONNECTORS WITH FERRITE ADDED
RC10(F) series connectors are an advanced design
derived from conventional RC10 series, with a
ferrite core added as protective means against EMI.
These are available in 24, 36 and 50 positions.
General
1. The added ferrite effectively attenuates conduction
noise.
2. Mounting dimensions and the applicable size of
circuit boards are identical to those for RC10 series
connectors.
3. Offers the best matching for printer interfacing
(conforms to Centronics specifications).
Features
Peripheral and terminal equipment, communications
equipment, printer interfacing, data handling equip-
ment, etc.

RC10H TYPE ESD PREVENTION RIBBON CONNECTOR
RIGHT ANGLE DIP VERSION
The RC10H connectors have been deveroped to pro-
vide resistance to ESD (electrostatic discharge), and
are available with 36 contacts.
General
1. Standard parallel interface mating. (Centronics
type)
2. One piece molded insulator.
3. UL PBT resins in insulator offer excellent resist-
ance to heat and chemicals.
4. Prevents malfunctions of electronic equipment and
damage to elements, ICs, and LSIs from electric
discharge by providing measures against ESD in
addition to the conventional measures against EMI
by a shielding case.
