Hirose FunctionMAX FX20 Series Straight Surface PCB Header, 40 Contacts, 0.5 mm Pitch, 2 Row, Shrouded FX20

Hirose FX20 Series Straight Surface PCB Header, model FX20-40P-0.5SV15, is a high-performance board-to-board connector featuring 40 contacts spaced at 0.5 mm pitch across 2 rows. This shrouded, straight orientation header utilizes the advanced FunctionMAX technology with a unique floating structure embedded in the housing, designed to absorb mounting misalignment errors and ensure precise connector alignment on PCB assemblies.

The floating contacts provide a minimum ±0.6 mm play in the X and Y directions, allowing self-centering during mating and preventing solder joint stress that commonly causes cracking and rework. Large mating guides further facilitate secure and correct fixture, accommodating ±1.2 mm alignment movement in XY axes.

Constructed with a polyamide housing and gold-plated copper alloy contacts, this connector combines robustness with excellent electrical performance. The dual beam contact design provides high resistance to vibration and maintains superior contact reliability, making it suitable for demanding industrial and automotive environments.

Rated for 0.5A current per pin and 50V operation, the FX20 header supports a broad range of applications including broadcast equipment, base station transceivers, industrial machinery, medical devices, printers, projectors, and smart meters.

Operating within a temperature range from -55°C to 85°C, these connectors reliably function in harsh conditions while preventing solder wicking and flux penetration through their contact clearance design. The shrouded design enhances connector protection and durability.
