TE Connectivity recently confirmed the release of the LED Holder, Type Z32, for the SHARP Electronics Mini ZENIGATA LED.

The small, low profile, circular Type Z32 LED Holder provides a quick and easy solderless power connection to the Sharp Mini ZENIGATA LED chip on board family, enabling designs to be more reliable, easier to use, and faster to market.

The Type Z32 eliminates hand solder operations reducing costs associated with assembly and rework. Direct attachment of the LED Holder to the heat sink using standard screws secures the LED without damaging or cracking the substrates that could lead to latent field defects.
