TE Connectivity Free Height Series Straight Surface PCB Socket 40-Contact 2 Row 0.8 mm Pitch Solder 5-5179010-1

TE Connectivity 5-5179010-1 Free Height Series Straight Surface PCB Socket is a high-density, board-to-board connector designed for advanced electronic component applications. Featuring 40 female contacts in two rows with an ultra-fine 0.8 mm pitch, this PCB socket supports reliable electrical connections in compact electronic assemblies.

The connector incorporates a Liquid Crystal Polymer housing and gold-plated copper contacts for superior conductivity and durability. Its free height series enables varied stacking heights, making it highly adaptable for mezzanine applications in portable devices such as notebook PCs, pen pads, and mobile phones.

Designed for surface mount technology (SMT), the socket has a straight orientation and solder termination, facilitating easy PCB installation with accurate placement ensured by PCB positioning bosses. The bellows-type spring design of the contacts offers resilient mating cycles, resistant to scooping and stubbing during connector engagement.

Electrical ratings include a maximum operating voltage of 100 volts and a current rating of 500 mA. The device performs reliably across a wide temperature range from -40°C to 125°C, suitable for demanding industrial and commercial electronic equipment environments.

The free height series connectors help save PCB space by more than 50% compared to traditional 1.27 mm centerline connectors, optimizing compact designs without compromising performance. Polarization features ensure correct mating orientation every time, preventing misalignment issues.
