HDASF029YC-000

Overview

The HDASF029YC-000 is a high-performance rectangular MIL-Spec connector from the Amphenol HDAS series, designed for harsh environment applications. It features a 29-position configuration with three rows and a 1.905 mm pitch. The component utilizes male pin contacts with gold plating on copper alloy substrates. It employs a right-angle PCB mount style with solder termination. The housing is constructed from black Liquid Crystal Polymer (LCP) rated UL94 V-0. Electrical specifications include a current rating of 4.5 A and a voltage rating of 750 V. The unit operates within a temperature range of -65°C to +150°C and meets MIL-DTL-55302G standards.

Feature Summary

• High-density interconnect capability achieved through reduced spacing and cylindrical machined pins
• Robust contact retention utilizing star-clamp technology for female sockets in mating counterparts
• Side rail protection system on male connectors to prevent external damage to contact points
• LCP insulation material compatibility with high-temperature soldering processes including lead-free requirements

Applications

• Avionics systems requiring vibration resistance
• Naval equipment exposed to humidity and pressure changes
• Ground vehicle and tank communication interfaces
• Radar systems operating under severe temperature fluctuations

Procurement Notes

Verify that the specific suffix YC corresponds to the right-angle plug configuration with PC tail contacts as documented. Confirm the manufacturer designation matches Amphenol Aerospace Operations rather than Socapex variants which may differ in orientation or mounting style. Ensure the order specifies the correct contact gender and row count to match the 29-position requirement. Cross-reference the datasheet revision to confirm compliance with current MIL-DTL-55302G standards before finalizing procurement.

Selection Notes

Select this component when space constraints necessitate a right-angle PCB interface while maintaining military-grade reliability. The HDAS series offers higher density than traditional MIL-DTL-38999 solutions. Choose this model for applications requiring operation up to 150°C where standard thermoplastics would fail. The LCP material ensures stability during high-temperature assembly processes. Verify that the 4.5 A current rating per contact aligns with the circuit load requirements.

Part Context

This part belongs to the HDAS family of high-density board-level interconnects. The series is engineered to replace bulkier traditional connectors by reducing footprint while increasing contact count. The design specifically targets defense and aerospace markets where weight reduction and signal integrity are critical. The modular nature allows for various configurations within the same mechanical envelope.

Replacement Considerations

Direct replacements must adhere to MIL-DTL-55302G specifications. Verify pinout compatibility and mechanical dimensions against existing designs. Alternative suppliers should provide equivalent gold-plated copper alloy contacts and LCP insulation ratings.
