HANDYLINK™
APPLICATION SPECIFICATION
1.0 SCOPE
This specification addresses the manufacturing techniques and end-usage considerations for Molex’s 0.8mm pitch HandyLink™ I/O
Connectors. The common contact interface used in this family of connectors consists of a flat pad mated to a radiussed edge on a
compression spring blade. The flat pad is enclosed by plastic in an over-molded receptacle housing which provides a sealed
ineterface to facilitate ingress protection. The compression spring blades are extremely durable and are capable of sustaining over
20,000 mating cycles. Two “passive” latches counteract the compression springs to keep the connector pairs mated but enable
simple disconnection by the end-user.
The customer is encouraged to contact Molex with any questions regarding the application of this product.

4.0 MATING AND UN-MATING OF CONNECTORS
This section describes the preferred methods for mating and un-mating the HandyLink™ connectors.
4.1
Recommendations for Mating and Un-Mating
This connector system utilizes a “passive” latching feature. There is no button to press to latch or unlatch. To latch, simply push the
plug into the receptacle (the connectors are polarized to discourage improper mating). To unlatch, simply grip the plug body firmly and
pull it straight out of the receptacle.
4.2
Mating Alignment Tolerances
4.2.a 44828 Receptacle to 45339 or 45593 Plug Connectors
The HandyLink™ plug and receptacle have been appropriately designed and toleranced to be mated and unmated by hand. The
connectors’ alignment features are manufactured with clearances to allow axial mating mis-alignment, as illustrated in the Figure 1,
below:

6.0 MECHANICAL MOUNTING RECOMMENDATIONS
6.1
Mechanical Fasteners and Support
6.1.1 Receptacle Connector
Molex recommends that the receptacle connector be mounted within the end-application enclosure such that it is recessed by 1.6 to
2.4mm from the outermost faces and with a 0.10mm maximum clearance with the casing inner walls. Such a recess provides multiple
advantages in terms of protecting the contact surfaces from accidental impact with foreign objects, providing mechanical support when
the mating plug connector assembly is torqued by abusive handling, and helps to reduce direct contact with hand oils or other
contamination. See Figures 3A and 3B, below, for recommendations on recess dimensions.

Figure 3B. Receptacle Connector Recess When Mating with the Plug or Cradle Connectors (units: mm)
Wherever possible, the 0.10 maximum clearance condition with the receptacle should be minimized by utilizing a clam-shell style
package design.
6.1.2 Plug Connector Module
The plug connector module is intended to be used as a part of a assembly using either direct wire soldering (45339) or using an
intermediary PCB (45593). Overmolding and/or clam shell style covers must be used to protect the wire connections and the
appropriate service loops and wire strain reliefs must be incorporated in a cable assembly to prevent damage during use. Please refer
to section 6.3 for further details about the over-molding process.
If the connector module is used as a stand-alone component on a PCB, the mating interface must be adequately supported. Please
refer to section 6.4.2 for further details concerning cradle design recommendations.
6.1.3 Cradle Connector
The cradle connector is designed to be fastened to the PCB with screws. See Sales Drawings for recommended screw size and
positions. Please refer to section 6.4.2 for further details concerning cradle design recommendations.

Ingress Protection
Ingress protection, as described by IEC 60529, is a function of the customer’s enclosure. The HandyLink™ Receptacle Connector has
been designed to facilitate enclosure design when ingress protection is required. The interfaces between the metal and plastic
components of the connector are sealed to discourage intrusion of dust and liquid through the connector into the enclosure. The
customer is expected to design an appropriate seal around the periphery of the connector to adequately seal the finished enclosure.
Contact Molex for additional information.
Gaskets may be applied to the top and sides, or
front surfaces.
The bottom surface, once soldered, forms a continuous seal with the PCB

Plug Cable Over-Molding
6.3.1 Wire Soldering
This section provides an outline of the recommended plug cable over-molding practices
for the 45339 and 45593 plug connector modules. The 45339 connector (a 16-circuit wire termination version) is shown, below, prior to
soldering. Please note the following features:
Latch soldertails (2 places)
Wire soldertails (2 rows)
Cavities under the latches (2 places)
Figure 5. Soldertail side of the plug connector
Pre-tinned wires should be terminated to the appropriate solder tails working in sequence and one row at a time, taking care that
the insulation does not become exposed more than 1mm from the end of the terminals. The completed assembly after soldering of
the wires is shown below. Dressing of the wires should be avoided until after the soldering and encapsulation processes are
complete.

6.3.2 Encapsulation
The next step after soldering is to pre-seal or encapsulate the back end of the connector and hold the wires in place using a silicone
sealant or a low-pressure Macro-melt polyamide adhesive molding. The sealant will prevent accidental shorting between adjacent
terminals and discourage intrusion of over-mold resin into the terminal and latch cavities. An illustration of the pre-seal coverage is
shown below. Care must be taken to ensure that no encapsulant enters the terminal or latch cavities.
Figure 7.
Encapsulated plug connector
An alternate method is to combine one or more molded ‘covers’ to block entire sections where void circuits are present, then use a
pre-seal or encapsulant to hold the wires separate. This is illustrated below.
Figure 8.
Covered and encapsulated plug connector
NOTE: The sealant or cover should enclose the cavities under the latches, whether or not wires are soldered to the latches. Omission
of this step would allow the final over-mold resin to extrude into cavities in the housing that could disable latch and terminal function.

6.3.3 Strain Relief
Molex strongly recommends the use of a crimp barrel or ferrule over the wire bundle
(including ground or drain wire) that also captures the cable jacket and tension member, if used. This will uniformly distribute
mechanical loads through the wire bundle and provide mechanical support to the cable jacket and tension member.

Design Best Practices
The information provided so far in this document has been related to the basic usage conditions of the HandyLink™ connectors. The
sections that follow contain important information and guidelines for design that apply to specific applications or industrial design
constraints for the end-product accessories. In all cases, Molex advises that prototype assemblies be used as early in the design and
development cycle as possible to simulate and assess true usage conditions in the actual end-products.
Please contact Molex for technical assistance with design feasibility studies or design reviews.
6.4.0 Mating Over-Travel Clearance
The HandyLink connectors are designed such that the corresponding ‘front’ faces fully engage and then spring back 0.20mm to the
final mated condition. This ‘over-travel clearance’ assures that the components of the passive latching system engage, as illustrated in
Figure 11. This clearance must be accommodated in all device and accessory designs top assure proper function.

Electrical Recommendations
7.1
Power Considerations
Please see the Product Specification, PS-44828-001, for the nominal electrical specifications. For applications where the sustained
electrical power usage requirements exceed the limits stated in the product specification, the use of multiple circuits is suggested.
When the end-application is likely to encounter salt spray conditions, potential differences exceeding 4VDC should be separated by
more than one terminal position (i.e. 1.6mm or more) to avoid galvanic corrosion between circuits.
7.2
High Speed Signal Transmission
Testing has shown that under the USB 2.0 Specification environment for connector components and cable assemblies (200 and
500 picosecond rise times), the HandyLink connectors perform within specification for both differential and common-mode impedance.
Full compliance testing on finished cable assemblies will have to be undertaken to verify the performance level of the finished
product.
Contact Molex for further assistance regarding high speed signal transmission applications.
