Worlds Smallest Connector for Wearables - BM55 Series -
Hirose Electric has developed the BM55 Series, the industry's smallest* hybrid signal/power board-to-board connector, stacking height of 0.019in.and 0.0590in. depth for use in compact devices like wearables and AR/VR. With 5G, quick charging, wireless charging and AI technologies, consumer devices have become more complex. BM55 allows added levels of design flexibility resulting in critical space-savings. With 5A current, the power contacts have a breakage preventing multi-point metal lock design. The hybrid power and signal design fulfils the role of two connectors. The BM55 also reduces the amount of needed materials contributing to sustainable development goals (SDGs). *as of Aug. 2022
