Hirose FunctionMAX FX8C Series Straight Surface PCB Header 100 Contacts 0.6 mm Pitch 2 Row Shrouded FX8C

Hirose FX8C Series Straight Surface PCB Header model FX8C is a high-performance electronic connector designed for board-to-board connections. It features a pitch of 0.6 mm and 100 contacts arranged in two rows, with a shrouded, straight orientation optimized for surface mounting applications. The housing is made from polyphenylene sulphide, providing thermal stability and durability in demanding environments.

With a current rating of 400mA and voltage rating of 100V, this PCB header is suitable for a wide range of low-power industrial and electronic assembly applications. The gold-plated phosphor bronze contacts provide excellent conductivity and resistance to wear. The connector supports high-speed data transmission at speeds up to 3.125 Gbit/s, making it suitable for modern communication and data equipment.

Key design features include integrated guide ribs that enable self-alignment with a tolerance of +/- 0.6 mm, facilitating easy mating and flexible system design. PCB alignment bosses with differing diameters and positions prevent misinsertion, ensuring assembly accuracy. The contacts have an optimized spring deflection design coupled with a 2 mm wiping distance to maintain reliable electrical contact over time. SMT coplanarity is maintained with a solder area tolerance of less than 0.1 mm.

This connector series is widely used in industrial equipment, servers, broadcast devices, medical instrumentation, and point-of-sale terminals. It is manufactured under the FunctionMAX brand, engineered to meet advancing industrial technology needs and deliver excellent signal integrity and performance resistance to environmental noise.

Supports high-speed data at 3.125 Gbit/s. Self-aligning guide ribs allow for misalignment tolerance of +/- 0.6 mm. Includes PCB bosses to enhance alignment and prevent misinsertion errors. Spring deflection contact design increases long-term reliability.

Wide stacking height range from 5 mm to 16 mm in the FX8C series. Solder termination type suited for SMT surface mount assembly. Temperature operation range from -55°C to 85°C. Designed for board-to-board connector application in multiple industries.
