Amphenol FCI MicroSpaceXS™ Crimp-to-Wire Connectors
Amphenol FCI MicroSpaceXS™ Crimp-to-Wire Connectors are a high-voltage, selective-loaded Crimp-to-Wire connector platform designed to meet VW 8033 (Sev2) and USCAR-37 (V2) high-voltage standards. These connectors feature Terminal Positioning Assurance (TPA) and Connector Positioning Assurance (CPA) to ensure secure terminal retention and reliable connector mating. The MicroSpaceXS™ crimp-to-wire connectors offer a 4N normal force for vibration and connector locking strength >110N. These connectors support voltage ratings ranging from 400V to 1200V and deliver up to a 4A current rating. Typical applications include battery management, automotive lighting, cameras, sensors, infotainment, and HVAC.
