Board fit and form factor
The DF12(3.0)-14DP-0.5V(86): This is a 14-position, 2-row header from the Hirose DF12 series, pitched at 0.020" (0.50mm) and designed for a 3mm mated stacking height. The outer shroud contacts and board guide features help align the mating receptacle during assembly, while the solder retention tails hold the part in place through reflow. Gold contact finish, 8.00µin thick, suits repeated mating cycles common in portable or modular electronics where the board stack is separated and reconnected during service.
The DF12(3.0)-14DP-0.5V(86) is listed as Obsolete. No official successor part is recorded in the series documentation, so a direct form-fit-function replacement within the DF12 family is not guaranteed. Sourcing is handled per RFQ — we confirm availability and lead time at the time of your request against the exact BOM quantity.
Mating half and footprint check
This header mates with a DF12 series receptacle that matches the 0.50mm pitch, 14 positions, and 3mm stacking height. The receptacle side typically uses the same contact plating grade. Confirm the receptacle order code against your assembly drawing before committing the BOM line.
