I'm currently working on a circuit that has two design issues that loom large for me at the moment. First, it needs to be in a small space, and second, due to connector limitations, it needs to have a small circuit board that sits at right angles to the "main" 2-board stack.
Just to add a fun constraint, some of the signals involved go from 0 to
200V, so really tightly-packed connectors are a no-go.I'm currently talking to a PCB house that does flex-rigid PCBs, just to get an idea of price, but I'm wondering if anyone has any thoughts on whether there are compact alternatives to this -- for instance, are there reliable board-to-board connectors that are compact, rated for 200V pin- pin, and right angle?
If you have any thoughts, I'll entertain them.
TIA
