Product details

120-Position Mezzanine Receptacle at 0.80 mm Pitch

At a 0.80 mm pitch, the contact density is high enough that the board layout engineer needs to plan the escape routing under the component — 120 signals on a 0.80 mm grid in two rows means a tight fan-out to inner layers. The receptacle accepts mating headers that produce stack heights of 9 mm, 10 mm, 11 mm, or 12 mm, giving the mechanical designer flexibility without changing the receptacle BOM line.

Board Layout and Z-Height Budget

The receptacle stands 7.75 mm above the PCB surface. That height, combined with the 0.80 mm pitch and 2-row layout, sets the keep-out zone for adjacent components on the receptacle board. The mating header (not included) determines the final stack height; the receptacle itself is common across the 9-12 mm range, so stocking one part number covers multiple board-spacing configurations.

No end-of-life notice or last-time-buy is recorded.
