Board-to-Board Plug for Dense Parallel Interconnects
The Hirose DF40C-100DP-0.4V(58) is a 100-position plug with outer shroud contacts from the DF40 series, designed for parallel board-to-board stacking. The 0.016" (0.40mm) pitch packs 100 circuits into a dual-row footprint that fits tight routing envelopes — typical for compact handheld devices, camera modules, and portable electronics where every mm of board space counts.
Mated Stacking Heights and Receptacle Matching
This plug mates with the DF40 series receptacle (order code DF40C-100DS-0.4V(58)) to achieve a mated stack height anywhere from 1.5mm to 4mm, depending on the receptacle variant selected. The 1.14mm height above board on the plug side means the overall z-height budget is the receptacle height plus 1.14mm — check the receptacle datasheet for its board standoff to calculate the exact stack. The outer shroud on the plug nests inside the receptacle shell, protecting the signal contacts during blind mating in stacked PCB assemblies.
