DF52 Series, 0.8mm Pitch, Robust, Wire-to-Board Connectors

Hirose has introduced the DF52 series to deliver a space-saving, robust, wire-to-board connectivity solution for applications requiring more strength and durability.

The connector range consists of crimp plugs and right angle receptacles in a single row.

The mated height profile is minimised to 1.75mm and the depth to 4.1mm to reduce the space needed on the board.

The housings have been designed with thicker and more robust walls to prevent breakage and resistance against mechanical stress during the cabling process. In addition, a higher cable pull force of approximately 20N (17 pos. vertical direction) can be achieved.

The crimp plug features a robust and reliable lance structure which keeps the contacts securely in place even when high forces are applied to the cable.

Highly reliable box shape crimp contacts are utilised to prevent deformation and provide strong resistance against breakage, snaring and rough operation.

The crimp plug has visible slits embedded into the housing structure to act as an indicator. When the slits are no longer visible this indicates the connectors are fully engaged guaranteeing complete electrical and mechanical connection and thus prevents incomplete mating.
