For board-to-board/board-to-FPC

Notes on Using Narrow pitch Connectors/

High Current Connectors

About safety Remarks

1) Do not use these connectors beyond

the specification sheets. The usage

outside of specified rated current,

dielectric strength, and environmental

conditions and so on may cause circuitry

damage via abnormal heating, smoke,

and fire.

2) In order to avoid accidents, your

thorough specification review is

appreciated.

Please contact us if your usage is out of

the specifications. Otherwise, Panasonic

Corporation cannot guarantee the quality

and reliability.

3) Panasonic Corporation is consistently

striving to improve quality and reliability.

However, the fact remains that electrical

components and devices generally cause

failures at a given statistical probability.

Furthermore, their durability varies with

use environments or use conditions. In

this respect, please check for actual

electrical components and devices under

actual conditions before use.

Continued usage in a state of degraded

condition may cause the deteriorated

insulation, thus result in abnormal heat,

smoke or firing. Please carry out safety

design and periodic maintenance

including redundancy design, design for

fire spread prevention, and design for

malfunction prevention so that no

accidents resulting in injury or death, fire

accidents, or social damage will be

caused as a result of failure of the

products or ending life of the products.

Regarding the design of devices and PC board patterns

1) When using the board to board

connectors, do not connect a pair of

board with multiple connectors.

Otherwise, misaligned connector

positions may cause mating failure or

product breakage.

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 tabs embossed

on the body to aid in positioning. When

using these connectors, make sure that

the PC board is designed with positioning

holes to match these tabs.

4) To ensure the required mechanical

strength when soldering the connector

terminals, make sure the PC board

meets recommended PC board pattern

design dimensions given.

5) PC board

Control the thicknesses of the coverlay

and adhesive to prevent poor soldering.

This connector has no stand-off.

Therefore, minimize the thickness of the

coverlay, etc. so as to prevent the

occurrence of poor soldering.

6) For all connectors of the narrow pitch

series, to prevent the PC board from

coming off during vibrations or impacts,

and to prevent loads from falling directly

on the soldered portions, be sure to

design some means to fix the PC board

in place.

Example) Secure in place with screws

When connecting PC boards, take

appropriate measures to prevent the

connector from coming off.

7) When mounting connectors on a FPC

board:

• When the connector soldered to FPC is

mated or unmated, solder detachment

may occur by the force to the terminals.

Connector handling is recommended in

the condition when the reinforcing plate is

attached to the backside of FPC where

the connector is mounted. The external

dimension of the reinforcing plate is

recommended to be larger than the

dimension of “PC board recommended

process pattern” (extended dimension of

one side is approximately 0.5 to 1.0 mm).

The materials and thickness of the

reinforcing plate are glass epoxy or

polyimide (thickness 0.2 - 0.3 mm) or

SUS (thickness 0.1 - 0.2 mm).

• As this connector has temporary locking

structure, the connector mating may be

separated by the dropping impact

depend on the size, weight or bending

force of the FPC. Please consider the

measures at usage to prevent the mating

separation.

8) The narrow pitch connector series is

designed to be compact and thin.

Although ease of handling has been

taken into account, take care when

mating the connectors, as displacement

or angled mating could damage or

deform the connector.

Regarding the selection of the connector placement machine and the mounting

procedures

1) Select the placement machine taking

into consideration the connector height,

required positioning accuracy, and

packaging conditions.

2) Be aware that if the chucking force of

the placement machine is too great, it

may deform the shape of the connector

body or connector terminals.

3) Be aware that during mounting,

external forces may be applied to the

connector contact surfaces and terminals

and cause deformations.

4) Depending on the size of the

connector being used, self alignment

may not be possible. In such cases, be

sure to carefully position the terminal with

the PC board pattern.

5) The positioning bosses give an

approximate alignment for positioning on

the PC board. For accurate positioning of

the connector when mounting it to the PC

board, we recommend using an

automatic positioning machine.

6) In case of dry condition, please note

the occurrence of static electricity.

The product may be adhered to the

embossed carrier tape or the cover tape

in dry condition.

Recommended humidity is from 40%RH

to 60%RH and please remove static

electricity by ionizer in manufacturing

process.
