Secure Efficiency: Pran Electronics CR2032 Vertical (180°) Coin Cell Holder
When board real estate is at a premium, the Pran Electronics CR2032 Vertical Coin Cell Holder offers the ultimate solution for high-density PCB designs. This precision-engineered 180-degree holder allows the battery to stand upright, significantly reducing the horizontal footprint compared to traditional flat-mount alternatives.
Designed for reliability and longevity, this holder is the industrial standard for providing backup power to RTCs (Real-Time Clocks), non-volatile memory, and critical sensor arrays.
Key Performance Features
-
Space-Optimized Vertical Mount: The 180° orientation saves up to 60% of PCB surface area, allowing for more components in compact enclosures.
-
High-Integrity Contacts: Built with phosphor bronze contacts featuring premium nickel plating. This ensures superior conductivity, low contact resistance, and long-term protection against corrosion and oxidation.
-
Enhanced Battery Retention: The robust “snap-in” design features tensioned contact clips that locks the battery in place, making it resistant to mechanical shock and vibration—critical for industrial and portable hardware.
-
Through-Hole Durability: Equipped with sturdy PHT (Pin-Through-Hole) terminals that provide a strong mechanical bond to the PCB, ensuring the holder remains stable during battery replacements.
-
Industrial Grade Insulation: Molded from high-temperature, UL 94V-0 rated thermoplastics making it compatible with modern wave soldering and lead-free processes.
