Overview

The ERM8-040-08.0-L-DV-K-TR is a high-speed, 80-position board-to-board header featuring a 0.80mm (0.031 inch) pitch and a rugged Rugged Edge Rate contact system. This vertical surface-mount connector is designed for high-cycle applications and provides a stack height of 8.0mm on its own, supporting mated stacking heights of up to 15mm depending on the mating socket. It includes a polyimide pick-and-place pad and board alignment guides for automated assembly and secure PCB positioning.

Why Choose This Part

The Edge Rate contact system is specifically designed to minimize crosstalk and optimize signal integrity in high-speed serial links. This header offers a high density of 80 positions in a compact footprint and features 10 micro-inches of gold plating for durable, low-resistance connections over its operating temperature range of -55C to +105C.
