NARROW-PITCH CONNECTORS FOR BOARD-TO-FPC CONNECTION Socket Header Compliance with RoHS Directive 2. Strong resistance to adverse environments! Utilizes construction for high contact reliability. (See Page 6 for details of the structure) 3. Improved mating strength between the socket and header The simple locking structures provided for the soldering terminals and the contact points improve the mating strength and provide tactile feedback when locked. Socket Header NARROW PITCH (0.4mm) CONNECTORS F4 5. Connectors for inspection available Connectors for inspection are available that are ideal for modular unit inspection and inspection in device assembly processes. APPLICATIONS Compact portable devices “Cellular phones, DVD, DSC, etc” Example of connection between a board and an FPC Before mating FPC F4 connector Reinforcing plate PCB After mating Locking structure of the soldering terminals FEATURES 1. The lowest profile class among twopiece connectors in the world (Mated height: 0.9mm) Achieved both a 0.4 mm pitch and an ultra low profile of 0.9 mm high when mated, contributing to further thickness reduction of products. 4. Easy to design product circuits 1) An insulating wall provided for the bottom surface of the connector prevents contact between the pattern on the PC board and the metal pins, enabling pattern wiring under the connector, and thus contributing to the reduction in size of PC boards. <Socket> <Header> Pattern wiring under the connector is possible. panasonic-electric-works.net/ac 0.9mm Narrow-pitch connectors AXK7L, 8L Narrow-pitch connectors AXK7L, 8L ORDERING INFORMATION AXK G AXK: Narrow Pitch Connector Series Series name; 7L: F4 (0.4 mm pitch) Socket 8L: F4 (0.4 mm pitch) Header Number of contacts (2 digits) Mated height <Socket> 2: For mated height 0.9 mm <Header> 1: For mated height 0.9 mm Functions 2: Without positioning bosses Surface treatment (Contact portion / Terminal portion) Note 2 <Socket> 7: Ni plating on base, Au plating on surface (for Ni barrier available) <Header> 5: Ni plating on base, Au plating on surface Other specifications <Header> B: Soldering terminals with fork type terminal Note 1 Packing G: 3,000 pieces embossed tape and plastic reel × 2 Notes: 1. “B” in the 11th digit of the header part number signifies a fork type soldering terminals to lessen the constraint on amount of solder when mounting, and a construction that makes it difficult when mounting for excess solder to interfere with the socket.
