The DF12E(3.0)-80DP-0.5V(81): This is a Hirose DF12 series header with outer shroud contacts, 80 positions in two rows at 0.020" (0.50 mm) pitch. The mated stack height is 3 mm, which sets the board-to-board gap in a mezzanine configuration.
Obsolete – plan a replacement now
For a BOM line that still needs this footprint, the closest active sibling in the DF12 series is the DF12(3.0)-80DP-0.5V(81) — same pitch, same 80 positions, same 3 mm stack height, same outer shroud header format. Confirm the contact finish thickness and any mechanical tolerance differences against your current assembly drawing before swapping.
