FEATURES

Compact two-piece, all-metal receptacle for

F5 MicroCan

TM

Accepts two-thirds of the MicroCan (one-

third of MicroCan will extend out)

Allows reading iButtons with either

momentary or dwelled contact

Outer ring will hold MicroCan for dwelled

contact

Two options for data contact: cantilever

(DS9100B) or coiled spring (DS9100C)

>10000 insertion/withdrawal cycles with no

performance degradation

Redundancy of contacts and high contact

force ensure reliability

Probe withstands high temperatures required

for PCB solder reflow operations

Material is stainless steel with selective tin-

lead plating for optimal solderability to

printed circuit board

Cleaning fluids drain freely for quick clean up

DESCRIPTION

The DS9100 Touch and Hold Probe Stampings' function is similar to the DS9098 iButton Retainer. An

F5 MicroCan will fit completely into the DS9098, but the flange and about one-third of the can will

extend out if pressed into the DS9100. As a probe, the DS9100A together with the coiled spring

DS9100C allows reading iButtons on contact. With additional pressure, the stiff springs of the

DS9100A’s outer ring will deflect and grip the MicroCan sufficiently to provide a continuous contact to

both the can rim (ground) and the can lid (data). If reading on contact is not required, the cantilever type
