6.50 mm Camera Socket — Footprint and Fit
The 105167-0001: This is a 6.50 x 6.50 mm camera socket from Molex, carrying 4 positions in a single-row layout. In a camera module application, the socket mates with a matching plug or device package; the 4-position count matches the typical power and I2C signal set for a compact image sensor. The socket is classified under IC & Device Sockets, meaning it is designed to receive a device package rather than a wire or cable. This distinguishes it from a general-purpose pin header — the contact interface and the mating cycle rating are optimized for repeated device insertion and removal during test or assembly.
The part is ROHS3 compliant, which covers the EU RoHS exemption list through 2024. For BOM planning, this means no immediate obsolescence risk; the part is available to order through independent distribution channels. The Box package (bulk) is the standard packaging format for this socket.
