New Product Release: I-PEX Launches the New Board-to-Board Connector NOVASTACK 35-HDP 12 (2026/May/15)

I-PEX has announced the release of NOVASTACK® 35-HDP 12, a new addition to its NOVASTACK® series of Board-to-Board connectors. Featuring a mating height of 1.2 mm, the connector offers excellent mating operability,  high connection reliability, and is equipped with four power contacts supporting 4.5 A per pin.

Background

Board-to-board connectors are required to deliver not only electrical performance such as high-speed signal transmission, but also ease of mating, mechanical strength, and reliable connections. Rather than optimizing these characteristics individually, a well-balanced overall design has become increasingly important in product selection.

To comprehensively address these requirements, I-PEX developed the NOVASTACK® 35-HDP 12 board-to-board connector. As an optimal option for various applications, this product introduces a new 1.2 mm mating height, which had not previously been available in the NOVASTACK® series lineup. This design enables excellent mating operability while ensuring high connection reliability through strong mating retention force.

In addition, the connector is equipped with four power contacts supporting 4.5 A per pin, allowing efficient power delivery while contributing to space savings. Furthermore, the integrated metal shield based on the ZenShield structure enhances EMC performance and overall robustness.
With its superior electrical characteristics, mechanical reliability, and stable assembly performance, NOVASTACK® 35-HDP 12 meets a wide range of requirements from board design to assembly processes.
