0.60 mm Pitch Mezzanine Receptacle for Dense Board Stacks
The 0.024" (0.60mm) pitch packs 120 contacts into a compact footprint, with the center strip contact arrangement supporting clean differential-pair routing.
Five Stacking Heights for Z-Height Flexibility
This receptacle supports mated stacking heights of 5mm, 6mm, 7mm, 9mm, and 11mm, giving the board-stacking engineer a range of z-height options without changing the PCB footprint. For a 5mm stack, the header sits roughly 1mm above its own board — the pair fits tight enclosures. At 11mm, there is room for mid-board components under the mezzanine.
Surface-Mount Termination and Tape & Reel Packaging
The FX8C-120S-SV(92) is a surface-mount receptacle, reflow-soldered to the PCB. The two-row contact layout with 0.60mm pitch demands careful PCB land pattern design — the datasheet's recommended footprint keeps solder fillets consistent and prevents bridging between adjacent pads.
Active Lifecycle and Sourcing
It is RoHS Compliant.
Comparing the FX8C-120S-SV(92) with Sibling Variants
The FX8C-120S-SV(92) shares the same 0.024" (0.60mm) pitch, 120 positions, gold plating, and 0.156" (3.96mm) height as the FX8C-120S-SV(71) and FX8C-120S-SV(68). The difference is packaging: the (92) suffix ships in Tape & Reel and Cut Tape, while the (71) comes in Tray and the (68) in Tube. For a high-volume SMT line, the Tape & Reel format of the (92) feeds directly into the pick-and-place feeder — no tray-to-tape transfer needed. The 140-position sibling FX8C-140S-SV(93) is the same receptacle in a wider body for designs needing 20 more signal lines at the same pitch.
