Compliance with RoHS Directive
2. Strong resistance to adverse
environments! Utilizes
construction
for high contact reliability.
(See Page 6 for details of the structure)
3. Improved mating strength between
the socket and header
The simple locking structures provided
for the soldering terminals and the
contact points improve the mating
strength and provide tactile feedback
when locked.

FEATURES
1. The lowest profile class among twopiece connectors in the world (Mated
height: 0.9mm)
Achieved both a 0.4 mm pitch and an
ultra low profile of 0.9 mm high when
mated, contributing to further thickness
reduction of products.
4. Easy to design product circuits
1) An insulating wall provided for the
bottom surface of the connector prevents
contact between the pattern on the PC
board and the metal pins, enabling
pattern wiring under the connector, and
thus contributing to the reduction in size
of PC boards.
Pattern wiring under the connector is possible.
