VRM-08-40-100-50-04-N1

Overview

The VRM-08-40-100-50-04-N1 is a board-to-board and mezzanine connector from the AirBorn verSI series, manufactured by Molex. It features a metal body with a 0.050-inch (1.27mm) pitch. The component is designed as a plug with solder pin termination and a right-angle installation style. It supports 320 positions arranged in 8 rows and 40 columns. The contacts are gold-plated beryllium copper, rated for 2A current and 200V voltage. Operating temperatures range from -55°C to +125°C.

Feature Summary

• High-density interconnect capability with 320 positions in a compact form factor
• Robust metal housing construction for structural integrity
• Right-angle solder pin termination for efficient board space utilization

Applications

• Board-to-board connections
• Mezzanine interface systems

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific datasheet version and RoHS compliance status directly with Molex or authorized distributors before procurement. Confirm that the ordering suffix matches the required mechanical and electrical specifications. Ensure compatibility with mating receptacles within the same verSI series family. Check for any recent product change notifications that may affect material composition or manufacturing origin.

Selection Notes

Select this component when high I/O density is required in a vertical stack-up configuration. The right-angle design facilitates compact system integration where horizontal space is limited. Verify that the 0.050-inch pitch aligns with the target PCB trace width and spacing constraints. Ensure the solder pin termination method is compatible with the assembly process used on the host board.

Part Context

This part belongs to the AirBorn verSI rectangular connector family, which adheres to MIL-DTL-83513 standards. The series is known for its reliability in demanding environments. The manufacturer, Molex / AirBorn, specializes in military and aerospace-grade interconnect solutions. This specific model represents a high-pin-count solution within the broader portfolio of board-to-board connectors.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes must match the 320-position count, 0.050-inch pitch, and right-angle solder termination. Verify compatibility with existing mating receptacles in the verSI series. Cross-reference with other Molex / AirBorn models offering similar row and column configurations if exact matches are unavailable.
