AMP PACE* Connectors 05 MAR 10 Rev A
All numerical values are in metric units [with U.S. customary units in brackets]. Dimensions are in millimeters [and
inches]. Unless otherwise specified, dimensions have a tolerance of +0.13 [+.005] and angles have a tolerance of +2_.
Figures and illustrations are for identification only and are not drawn to scale.
1. INTRODUCTION
This specification covers the requirements for application of Next Generation AMP PACE connectors onto
printed circuit (pc) boards for use in computer and electronic equipment. The connectors are designed to
connect daughter card to motherboard. These connectors contain press--fit compliant pin contacts in 10
through 60 positions. The connectors have a double row of contacts with spacing on 2.54¢5.08 mm
[.100¢.200 in.] centerlines. The connectors are supplied in soft tray form for manual placement, and hard tray
form for automatic machine placement.
The connectors feature a housing with a card slot which accepts 1.37 through 1.78 mm [.054 through .070 in.]
thick daughter card. The card slot contains inter--contact keying slots that accept a key plug (available
separately) to ensure proper orientation with the mating daughter card (which must be slotted to accept the
key). An inter--contact keying slot is located between the contacts. The connectors are also available with a
molded--in key (the mating daughter card must be slotted to accept this key).
When corresponding with Tyco Electronics Personnel, use the terminology provided in this specification to
facilitate your inquiries for information. Basic terms and features of this product are provided in Figure 1.

with nickel; contact areas are plated with gold, and the tips are plated with tin--lead or matte tin.
3.4. Storage
A. Ultraviolet Light
Prolonged exposure to ultraviolet light may deteriorate the chemical composition used in the connector
material.
B. Shelf Life
The connectors should remain in the shipping containers until ready for use to prevent deformation to the
contacts. The connectors should be used on a first in, first out basis to avoid storage contamination that
could adversely affect performance.
3.5. Chemical Exposure
Do not store connectors near any chemical listed below as they may cause stress corrosion cracking in
the contacts.
Alkalies Ammonia Citrates Phosphates Citrates Sulfur Compounds
Amines Carbonates Nitrites Sulfur Nitrites Tartrates

3.8. Connector Spacing
Care must be used to avoid interference between adjacent connectors and other components. The minimum
allowable distance between connectors to ensure proper mating is provided in Figure 5.
This requirement is for manual placement of connectors. If robotic equipment is used, other space allowances will be
required for the grippers.

3.9. Connector Placement
Connectors should be handled only by the housing to avoid deformation, contamination, or damage to the contacts.
When placing connectors on the pc board, contacts must be aligned and started into the matching holes before
seating the connector onto the board. The force required to seat the connector onto the board can be
calculated by:
Number of connector positions ¢35.6 N [8 lb] (maximum seating force per contact) =
connector seating force N [lb]

3.10. Polarization
The connectors are available with a polarization feature. These connectors are polarized to the mating
daughter card by the molded--in key. The daughter card must be slotted to accept the molded--in key. This
prevents the daughter card from being incorrectly inserted into the connector.
3.11. Keying
A key plug is available to insert into any of the inter--contact keying slots in the connector. The daughter card
must be slotted to accept the key plug. This prevents the daughter card from being incorrectly inserted into the
connector. The key plug must be inserted into the card slot with the flat end facing up, then fully seated. Keying
can be done before or after the connector is installed onto the pc board. See Figure 6.

3.12. Checking Installed Connector
The widest section of each contact must be inside the pc board hole. The housing must be seated on the pc
board not exceeding the dimension shown in Figure 7.

3.13. Daughter Card Mating and Unmating
When mating or unmating the daughter card, care should be taken to prevent longitudinal rocking of the daughter card
with respect to the connector. Angles greater than 3_could cause damage to the housing or misregistration of the
contacts and daughter card circuit pads.
The daughter card must be mated to the connector according to the following.
1. For connectors with a key plug, the keying slot of the daughter card must be aligned with the key
plug. For connectors with a molded--in key, the keying slot of the daughter card must be aligned with the
molded--in key. Refer to Figure 8, Detail A.
2. The daughter card must be inserted straight into the connector card slot until the card is fully seated.
See Figure 8, Detail B.
CAUTION
!
Next Generation AMP PACE Connectors 114- 13040
Rev A6 of 8 Tyco Electronics Corporation
When being removed from the connector, the daughter card must be carefully pulled straight out of the
connector card slot.
3.14. Connector Removal
The force required to remove the connector from the pc board can be calculated by:
Number of connector positions ¢8.9 N [2 lb] (minimum extraction force per contact) =
connector extraction force N [lb]
3.15. Repair
These connectors are not repairable. Damaged connectors must be removed, discarded, and replaced with
new ones. Connectors must be removed from the pc board using a push bar (or flat rock) covering all contacts
protruding through the board. A housing support and pc board support must also be used during removal.
4. QUALIFICATION
No qualifying support for Next Generation AMP PACE connectors was defined at the time of publication of this
document.

5. TOOLING
No tooling is required for manual placement of the connectors onto the pc board. Manually--operated tools are
available. The application tooling must provide sufficient amount of downward force to insert the contacts into
the pc board holes. Tooling part numbers and instructional material packaged with the tooling are shown in
Figure 9.
5.1. Manual Tools
For low--volume production, commercial hand--operated arbor presses are available. For seating the
connectors, the Greenerd manual frame assembly must be fitted with an adapter kit. The adapter kit includes a
board support plate.
Next Generation AMP PACE Connectors 114- 13040
Rev A 7 of 8Tyco Electronics Corporation
5.2. Robotic Equipment
Robotic equipment must have a true position accuracy tolerance of 0.25 mm [.010 in.] to feed, pick up, and
place the connectors on the pc board. This includes gripper and fixture tolerances as well as equipment
repeatability.
5.3. Housing Support
A housing support with sides and ends as close as possible to the connector housing is recommended when
removing the connectors from the pc board. The support protects the housing from damage.
5.4. PC Board Support
For machine placement, a pc board support must be used to prevent bowing of the pc board during the
placement of connectors on the board. The support should have flat surfaces with holes or a channel large
enough and deep enough to receive the contacts. It is also recommended using the pc board support when
removing connectors from the board.
5.5. Push Bar (Flat Rock)
Commercially available bar stock with a flat surface large enough to cover all contacts is used to seat
connectors and must be used with application tooling. The push bar is also used to remove connectors from
the pc board.
