3.4. Mating Dimension
Full mating of connectors is necessary to ensure a good connection. The dimension from the surface of the pc
board to which the pin header is mounted and the first row of contacts in the receptacle must be as shown in
Figure 5.

3.5. PC Board Requirements
A. PC Board Thickness
Right--angle receptacle and right--angle pin header connectors with compliant pins require a pc board with
a minimum thickness of 1.30 mm. Those with solder tines will accommodate any pc board thickness that
allows the tine to protrude a minimum of 1.00 mm from the bottom surface of the pc board.
Vertical pin header connectors with compliant pin contacts require a pc board with a minimum thickness of
2.40 mm. Pin header connectors with solder tines will accommodate any pc board thickness that allows
the solder tines to protrude a minimum of 1.00 mm from the bottom surface of the pc board.
Mating pc boards for pin header connectors require a maximum allowable thickness of 2.50 mm.
B. PC Board Circuit Pattern Layout
The pc board layout patterns for the placement of Z--PACK 2mm FB Pin Header and Receptacle
Connectors are provided in Figure 6.
For applications requiring the minimum installation force for the connector, the pc board through--hole size should favor
the high end of the allowable tolerance. For applications using IR or vapor phase soldering techniques in conjunction
with solder paste, through--hole size should favor the low end of the allowable tolerance to ensure optimum solder fill.
