PMC Mezzanine Connector — 64-Position Plug for IEEE 1386 Modules
The TE Connectivity 5120525-1 is the 64-position plug (male) half of the Free Height (FH) connector family, designed specifically for IEEE 1386 / PMC (PCI Mezzanine Card) applications. This is the connector that lives on the PMC module itself, mating with the receptacle on the carrier board. The 0.039" (1.00mm) pitch and 8mm mated stacking height are the exact dimensions the IEEE 1386 standard defines for the mezzanine interconnect — no other height fits the card cage envelope.
Board Layout — 1.00mm Pitch and Surface Mount Footprint
The 1.00mm pitch on a 64-position, 2-row layout means the footprint spans roughly 32mm along the board edge — tight enough to fit within the PMC module's standard form factor.
