DF40C(2.0)-40DS-0.4V(51) - HIROSE Electric U.S.A., Inc.

DF40 Series

0.4 mm Contact Pitch Board-to-Board /Board-to-FPC Connectors

2011.9w

■Features

Higher density of the board-mounted components

Extremely small board mounting pattern and low above-

the-board profile makes the connectors ideally suited for

small device applications.

2. Stacking height variation : 1.5mm to 4.0mm

3. High contact reliability

Despite connectors small size and low profile the contacts

provide strong contact forces and long contact wipe (0.45

mm), guaranteeing reliable electrical and mechanical

performance.

4. Large self-alignment distance

The connectors will self-align within 0.33 mm.

5. Confirmation of the fully mated condition

Positive “click” sensation confirms correct insertion and

connection of all contacts.

6. Built-in shock absorbing feature

The protrusions and indents in the insulator bodies protect

the connectors from failures when exposed to sudden

impact.

7. Solder wicking prevention

Nickel-plated barriers provide protection against solder

wicking into the contact areas.

8. Contact area protection

External walls protect the exposed contact areas from

intrusion of flux or foreign particles.

■Usage Recommendations

1. Recommended temperature

profile

2.Recommended manual soldering

. Recommended screen thickness and

open area ratio (Pattern area ratio)

4.Board warpage

5.Cleaning conditions

6.Precautions

* Mating and un-mating of the connectors when not soldered on the boards is not recommended

as this may cause deformation of the terminals, damage to the contacts or insulators.

■ Mated connectors should not carry weight of the board by themselves.

Provide some other support of the boards.

■ When mating/un-mating do not twist or lift by the corners.

Apply the forces evenly across the entire length and width of the connectors taking care NOT to

damage or deform soldered terminations.

■ Exercise extreme caution when mating/ un-mating when the connector is mounted on a non-

rigid (flexible) substrate.

■ Do NOT pull on the flexible substrate.

■ Slight discoloration on the insulating materials will not affect form, fit or function of the connectors.

Cleaning is not recommended. When cleaning, please evaluate as if can deteriorate the

performance including mechanical operation and environmental resistance.

Maximum of 0.02 mm at the connector center, with both ends of the connector as reference points.

Manual soldering: 340±10ç for 3 seconds

Note 1: Up to 2 cycles of Reflow soldering are possible under the same conditions,

provided that there is a return to normal temperature between the first and

second cycle.

Note 2: The temperature profile indicates the board surface temperature at the point of

contacts with the connector terminals.

■Handling Precautions when mating the connectors

DF40*-*DP-0.4V

Header

DF40*-*DS-0.4V

Receptacle

Keep the connectors parallel to each other when

positioning

Do not attempt to mate the connectors staring at one end

or side.

Press-down evenly until slight resistance is felt.

Overcoming this slight resistance will complete the

mating receptacle with the header. A definite “click”

sensation will confirm the fully mated condition.

DF40 Series●0.4 mm Contact Pitch Board-to-Board /Board-to-FPC Connectors

■Handling Precautions when un-mating the connectors

DF40*-*DS-0.4V

DF40*-*DP-0.4V

Lift even one side, keeping both boards parallel to each other.

Fully mated

When handling, circumstances prevent the connector from

being kept level during the un-mating. One end may be lifted

separate as shown.

However, to utilize this procedure the connector must be

mounted on a sufficiently rigid circuit board.

Any deflection of the board during this operation may result in

damage to the connectors or solder joints.

Do not attempt the start of the un-mating of the connectors

from one side or corner.

When un-mating is from the width orientation, as illustrated in

the diagram to the left, connector could be damaged. Do not

remove from the width orientation.

■Handling Precautions when un-mating the connectors

FPC

Receptacle

Header

Receptacle

Header

Low rigidity FPC should not be used for mounting of the

receptacle.

Un-mating of the connectors when the receptacle is mounted

on the extremely flexible FPC can result in solder joint failure

or damage to the connector itself.

It is highly recommended that the receptacle be mounted on

the rigid PCB and the header on the FPC.

Contact HRS when specific application requires mounting of

the receptacle on the FPC.

All published performance data is based on connectors

mounted on rigid FPC and PCB.

Failure to exercise caution when un-mating connectors

mounted on the non-rigid FPC may also result in connector

breakage.
