Narrow pitch connectors (0.4mm pitch) 3. Low prole and highly resistant to various environments possible with the use of highly reliable “ ” connector design. 1. 0.6 mm mated height low prole two-piece type connector 2. Space-saving (3.0 mm widthwise) Smaller compared to F4 series (40 pin contacts): Socket — 40% smaller, Header — 43% smaller Bellows contact construction (Against solder rise!) (Against dropping!) Soldering terminals at each corner Suction face: 0.8mm Porosity treatment (Against corrosive gases!) Soldering terminals at each corner Suction face: 1.1mm V notch and Double contact constructions (Against foreign particles and flux!) 4. Simple lock structure provides tactile feedback to ensure excellent mating/unmating operation feel. 5. Gull-wing-shaped terminals to facilitate visual inspections. 6. Connectors for inspection available APPLICATIONS Mobile devices, such as cellular phones, digital still cameras and digital video cameras. 3: Narrow Pitch Connector A4F (0.4 mm pitch) Socket 4: Narrow Pitch Connector A4F (0.4 mm pitch) Header Number of pins (2 digits) Mated height / 1: For mated height 0.6 mm Functions 2: Without positioning bosses Surface treatment (Contact portion / Terminal portion) 4: Ni plating on base, Au plating on surface (for Ni barrier available) 4: Ni plating on base, Au plating on surface Panasonic Corporation Automation Controls Business Division

Notes on Using Narrow pitch Connectors Notes on Using Narrow pitch Connectors Regarding the design of devices and PC board patterns 1) When connecting several connectors together by stacking, make sure to maintain proper accuracy in the design of structure and mounting equipment so that the connectors are not subjected to twisting and torsional forces. 2) With mounting equipment, there may be up to a ±0.2 to 0.3-mm error in positioning. Be sure to design PC boards and patterns while taking into consideration the performance and abilities of the required equipment. 3) Some connectors have...

Notes on Using Narrow pitch Connectors Handling Single Components 1) Make sure not to drop or allow parts to fall from work bench 2) Excessive force applied to the terminals could cause warping, come out, or weaken the adhesive strength of the solder. Handle with care. 3) Repeated bending of the terminals may cause terminals to break. 4) Do not insert or remove the connector when it is not soldered. Forcibly applied external pressure on the terminals can weaken the adherence of the terminals to the molded part or cause the terminals to lose their evenness. 5) Excessive prying-force applied...
