The 0.106\" (2.70mm) height above board and mated stacking heights of 3.5mm, 4mm, or 5mm let you pick the board spacing, but you need to match the mating plug's stack height exactly. Gold contact finish and a board guide feature help with alignment during SMT assembly — the guide takes some shear off the signal pins when boards are mated. No stock-holding claim; each order is a fresh sourcing check. ## Mating and stacking height check The mated stacking height is determined by the plug variant — 3.5mm, 4mm, or 5mm — so confirm the plug's stack height matches your board-to-board gap.","metaTitle":"DF12A-50DS-0.5V(80) Hirose DF12 50-Position 0.50mm","metaDescription":"Hirose DF12A-50DS-0.5V(80) board-to-board receptacle, 50 positions, 0.50mm pitch, dual-row, SMT, gold contacts.
