30-position 0.50mm pitch header – what it is
The DF12(4.0)-30DP-0.5V(81): This is a Hirose DF12 series header, 30 positions in two rows on a 0.50mm pitch, with outer shroud contacts and gold plating.
Obsolete – sourcing and replacement path
This part is marked obsolete. No official successor is listed on the record, so a pin-compatible alternative within the DF12 series is the first place to look.
The solder retention feature resists shear force from the mating receptacle during vibration or cable strain.
