0.4 mm Pitch, 1.5 mm Board-to-Board Connectors with Dual Shields
FX12 Series
A263
■Features
1. Dual shields
Built-in shield plates and metal fittings in the plugs and
receptacles prevent electromagnetic emission and external
interference on the entire 360° periphery of mated
connectors.
2. Low-Profile
Board-to-Board distance of 1.5 mm and reduced PCB
mounting pattern allows use in applications where space is
limited.
3. Self alignment
Built-in self-alignment feature in the plug and receptacle
allows mating / un-mating in limited spaces.
4. Consistent mated retention force
Indents in the shield plates and contact configuration
assure consistency of the mated retention forces
irrespective of the contact numbers. Positive “click”
sensation confirms fully mated condition.
5. Solder wicking prevention
Nickel plating barrier on the contacts prevents solder
compound intrusion (wicking) into the contact engagement
areas.
6. Board placement with automatic equipment
Packaged on tape-and-reel, the connectors have flat areas
(0.8mm) to allow use of vacuum nozzles.
7. RoHS Compliant
All components and materials comply with the requirements
of the EU Directive 2002/95/EC.

When using water based cleaning agents (e.g., terpene, alkali saponifiers), select the cleaning agent based on the documentation
issued by the various manufacturers of cleaning agents which describes it’s affects on metals, platings and plastics. Remove any
moisture after cleaning. Residual flux or cleaning agents in the contact areas may affect electrical performance.

MAX 0.3 MAX 0.3
FX12*-**S-0.4SV
FX12*-**P-0.4SV
Fig.1
(0.5mm)(0.5mm)
Start the engagement of the connectors within the specified
self-alignment range of 0.3 mm, while keeping the boards
parallel to each other.
Do NOT start mating of the mounted connectors under an
angle.
Correctly position the connectors over each other and assure
that both boards are parallel to each other.
When the connectors are correctly aligned (and both boards are
parallel to each other) apply even force until full mating is
confirmed by the “click” sensation.
When the connectors are mounted on the FPC, special care should be excercised NOT to have the forces of the FPC’s bend
or twist affecting the fully mated connectors.
Device case or cushioning material should be used to keep connectors fully mated.

FX12 Series●0.4 mm Pitch, 1.5 mm Board-to-Board Connectors with Dual Shields
BHandling Precautions when un-mating
Keep the boards (with mounted connectors) parallel to each
other.
If parallel disconnection is impossible, start un-mating at one
end exercising extreme caution to apply force at the center of
the connector itself, away from the solder joint rows
(Ref. Fig A and Fig. B)
Do NOT start disconnection at the sides as the connector can
be damaged, voiding the warranty and making the re-
engagement impossible.

Explanatory Note
Measurement values of the unshielded connectors were set as the zero level of the vertical axis of the graph. The graph uses
unshielded connectors as the reference and indicates the noise leakage suppression (shielding) effect of the shielded connectors
as a relative comparison value.
In comparison to the unshielded connectors there was a noise suppression effect of 10 dB to 30 dB over the frequency range of 100
MHz to 3 GHz.
Explanatory Note
A signal of the 266 MHz operating frequency was transmitted through all contacts, over a frequency range of 10 MHz to 3 GHz. The
magnetic field leaking to the surroundings from the gap between the boards was measured with a magnetic probe to provide the
(mapping data) results.
