Engineering Datasheet: THM Battery Clip, Direct Footprint Replacement for Keystone 92
Securing cylindrical cells on high-density FR4 boards against lateral mechanical shock demands extreme retention force and absolute THM pin coplanarity to withstand wave soldering turbulence. The Jiatel JT-BC-AA-KS92 functions as a high-reliability, 1:1 direct footprint replacement for the industry-standard Keystone 92 battery clip. Engineered with a robust U-channel gripping architecture and dual downward solder tails, it allows hardware engineers to execute seamless board-level power integration without altering existing PCB drill hole coordinates or modifying wave soldering pallets.
Verified Board-Level Parameters
| Target Cross-Reference | Direct Footprint Replacement for Keystone 92 |
| Mounting Architecture | Through-Hole Mount (THM) Dual Pin |
| Lateral Pin Pitch | 6.35mm Width Spread (Requires Ø1.90mm Drills) |
| Axial PCB Pitch (“L” Dim) | 33.5mm (AA) | 7.90mm (1/2AA) |
| Base Metallurgy | T=0.35mm Mn Spring Steel | 100μ” Nickel Plated |
Target Deployments
- Industrial IoT: Ruggedized sensor nodes requiring severe vibration resistance.
- Medical Diagnostics: PCB-mounted patient monitoring modules.
- Consumer Electronics: High-drain devices requiring THM stability.
Metallurgical Rigidity & Solder Joint Integrity
To prevent cell dislodgement during mechanical impact and ensure zero-defect wave soldering, the JT-BC-AA-KS92 is precision-stamped from high-yield T=0.35mm Manganese (Mn) Spring Steel. This specific metallurgical formulation guarantees absolute structural rigidity for the U-channel gripping arms, preventing the clip from yielding under repeated battery insertion cycles. The entire assembly is finished with high-density 100μ” Nickel Plating, maximizing wave solder wettability on the dual 1.60mm wide THM pins and eliminating the risk of pseudo-soldering (cold joints) across the manufacturing line.
NPI PCB Footprint Audit & SLA Directive
Board-level integration demands strict adherence to pin pitch dimensions (6.35mm lateral, L-dimension axial) and drill hole tolerances (Ø1.90mm) to prevent THM misalignment and wave soldering failures. Our engineering directive absolutely prohibits the distribution of 3D STEP models, 3D CAD files, or Direct 3D downloads for PCB layout confirmation. We execute structural footprint validation exclusively through official [Technical Datasheets] and dimensionally controlled [2D Footprint Specs].
