32-Position Board-to-Board Mezzanine Receptacle
The Hirose DF12C-32DS-0.5V(81) is a 32-position receptacle from the DF12 series, designed for board-to-board mezzanine stacking. The connector supports three mated stacking heights — 3.5mm, 4mm, and 5mm — giving the board designer flexibility in z-axis spacing without changing the footprint.

Mating and Stacking Height Options
The DF12C-32DS-0.5V(81) mates with the corresponding DF12 series header (not included). The three stacking height options — 3.5mm, 4mm, and 5mm — are set by the header pin height, not the receptacle. Surface-mount termination suits reflow assembly; the gold contacts handle moderate mating cycles without degradation.
