FASTON Printed Circuit Board Tabs and Receptacles (Continued)
FASTON Terminals (Insulated and Uninsulated)
Printed Circuit Board
Tabs and Receptacles
The FASTON RAST 5 Tab
header assembly system is
designed to provide a RAST
5 interface to a printed
circuit board. The RAST 5
standard defines and
standardizes the connector
mating interface. 250 series
tabs are placed on 5mm
center lines with a plastic
shroud that has keying,
polarization, and locking
features that help prevent
mismating of the
corresponding RAST 5
female receptacle housing.
The header assembly is
designed to accept any
RAST 5 compliant female
receptacle system or
individual quick connects.
The most common
application for this product
is for household appliance
controls where OEMs want
to minimize the possibility
of crossed wires. It is also
suited for other applications
such as gaming, vending,
and exercise equipment
controls as well as
residential, commercial and
industrial HVAC and light
industrial equipment. The
system comes fully
assembled and is easily
press fit into the board for
the soldering operation.
Preassembly of the tabs
into the header ensures tab
perpendicularity to the
board. The solder leg PCB
layout is based on the
industry standard for similar
systems available on the
market. To further enhance
correct placement onto the
board, the vertical system
includes a plastic post
which allows header
placement to be polarized.
