What This 60-Position Mezzanine Receptacle Covers
This receptacle is specified for board-to-board stacking applications where the mated height between PCBs falls between 13 mm and 16 mm — the same part covers four stack heights, so one BOM line covers multiple board-spacing variants. The SMT termination and board guide feature simplify pick-and-place assembly; the guide posts take shear loads off the signal pins during mating.
Stack Height Flexibility — One Part, Four Gaps
The 5084616-2 supports mated stacking heights of 13 mm, 14 mm, 15 mm, and 16 mm. That range covers common mezzanine card gaps without requiring a different receptacle for each height — the same board footprint works across all four. For a procurement buyer consolidating SKUs across multiple board assemblies, this one receptacle replaces what would otherwise be four line items.
Board Layout and Assembly Fit
At 0.80 mm pitch, the 60 positions fit in a dual-row layout that routes two signals per column through a dense board. The SMT pads are standard for this pitch class — no fine-pitch process adjustments needed. The 0.463" (11.75 mm) height above board means the component clears low-profile components on the mezzanine card's underside.
Lifecycle and Sourcing Position
No official second-source cross-reference exists; the pitch and position count are specific to the Free Height series footprint.
