0.40mm Pitch, 60-Position Mezzanine Receptacle
The Hirose DF30FC-60DS-0.4V(81) is a 60-position receptacle from the DF30 series, designed for board-to-board mezzanine stacking at a fixed 0.9mm mated height. The 0.40mm pitch packs 60 contacts into a compact footprint for space-constrained portable electronics — think smartphone mainboards, wearable displays, or compact camera modules where every millimeter of board real estate is allocated. This is the receptacle (female) side of the mating pair; the contacts are recessed inside an outer shroud that guides the mating header and protects the beams during handling. Gold plating on the contacts, at 2.00µin thickness, handles the moderate mating cycle counts typical of internal device interconnects — it's not a field-service connector, but it's fine for the few mate/unmate cycles during assembly and repair.
0.9mm Stack Height — Tight Z-Budget Fit
The 0.88mm height above board for this receptacle means the connector itself sits low, but the mating header's height adds to the stack. Confirm the total stack height against your enclosure clearance before committing the layout.
Position Count vs. Sibling Variants
The DF30 series offers this same 0.40mm pitch and 0.9mm stack height in 60-position and 70-position variants. The DF30FC-70DS-0.4V(81) carries 70 positions at the same pitch and height — the extra 10 contacts add routing density for applications needing more signals in the same board footprint.
