Target connectors, also known as header connectors, are used to create connections between the embedded target and BlueBox Hardware (Active Probes, Debug Adapters, Active Probe Adapters etc.). When designing your embedded target and selecting a target connector, it's essential to consider available space around the target connector to have a possibility to connect with BlueBox Hardware. It’s recommended that you use standard target connectors.
Below you can find Target connector information for the belonging iC7 / Active Probe Adapter.

Strain relief is a feature added to some target connectors to improve their mechanical stability and durability. The robust connector (Samtec FFSD-xx-01-N-SR) is located at the end of the cable and is the recommended connection connector. It's a bit wider and therefore the target must have a matching part populated. Matching part on the target side is e.g. Samtec ESHF-1xxx-01-L-D (full frame connector) or Samtec FTSH-1xxx-01-F-DV-K (connector without the frame at the side).
The second connector (Samtec FFSD-xx01-N) is 1cm away from the first one toward the BlueBox (Samtec FFSD-xx-01-N). It’s much less robust and is prone to fail if the cable is not handled cautiously or just connected/disconnected too many times. This connector should be used when the target doesn’t provide the matching target connector for the Strain relief type connector. Matching part on the target is Samtec SHF-1xx-01-L-D or Samtec FTSH-1xx-01-F-DV-K (connector without the frame at the side).
For the target side connector it’s most convenient to use the FTSH-1xx-01-F-DV-K connector since it matches the connector with and without the Strain relief option.
