Board-to-Board Header for Tight Stacking
The surface-mount termination suits automated pick-and-place assembly, and the integrated board guide aligns the header during reflow to prevent tombstoning or skew. The 0.112" (2.85mm) height above board, combined with the matching FX8 receptacle, yields a mated stacking height of 3mm — a common dimension for compact handheld or portable equipment where board spacing is constrained.
Mating Pair and Board Layout
This header mates with the Hirose FX8 series receptacle (order code FX8-60S-SV or similar suffix). The 0.60mm pitch demands a tight PCB layout — route traces between pads with a 0.30mm trace/space capability or use micro-vias to break out inner rows.
