Hirose ZX62R-AB-5P(30) — USB micro AB Receptacle, Shielded, Right-Angle SMT
The Hirose ZX62R-AB-5P(30) is a USB micro AB receptacle from the ZX series, designed for applications where a single port must accept either a micro-A or micro-B plug. It carries 5 contacts, is fully shielded, and is rated for USB 2.0 signaling, making it suitable for portable devices, docking stations, and embedded systems that require a compact, durable USB interface. The 1.8 A per-contact current rating and 30 VAC voltage rating align with USB 2.0 power delivery limits — the 1.8 A provides headroom for standard 5 V bus-powered devices without exceeding the contact temperature rise. With 10,000 mating cycles, this receptacle is built for frequent connect/disconnect duty in field-service or consumer devices where the port sees daily use — the gold-plated contacts resist fretting corrosion over that cycle life.
Mounting and Assembly for SMT Lines
The ZX62R-AB-5P(30) is a surface-mount, right-angle receptacle with a horizontal, reverse-mount orientation — the plug inserts parallel to the PCB, and the contact tails are on the bottom side, which suits low-profile board-edge designs.
