VSF-04-40-50-00-J

Overview

The AirBorn VSF-04-40-50-00-J is a rectangular military specification receptacle from the verSI series. It features a plastic body with a 0.050-inch (1.27mm) pitch and supports 160 circuits arranged in 4 rows and 40 columns. The component utilizes vertical press-fit termination for board mounting and includes fixed jacknuts compatible with a maximum board thickness of 0.125 inches. Contact plating is gold, and it complies with MIL-DTL-83513 standards.

Feature Summary

• Military specification compliance under MIL-DTL-83513
• Vertical press-fit termination for secure board mounting
• Fixed jacknut design accommodating specific board thicknesses

Applications

• Board-to-board interconnects requiring high density
• Military and aerospace electronic systems
• High-reliability telecommunications infrastructure

Procurement Notes

Verify the suffix 'J' against official Molex/AirBorn documentation to confirm material or plating specifications, as datasheets may list variants like 'N'. Ensure the required board thickness does not exceed the fixed jacknut limit of 0.125 inches. Confirm RoHS status and current revision levels directly with the manufacturer before finalizing procurement.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a receptacle with a plastic housing and fixed mechanical retention is required. The 1.27mm pitch allows for high circuit density within a compact footprint. Ensure mating plugs are compatible with the female socket contacts and that the assembly environment meets the operating temperature range specified in the official datasheet.

Part Context

This part belongs to the AirBorn verSI series, designed for high-density interconnect applications. The series offers various configurations including different row counts, body materials, and termination styles to meet diverse system requirements while maintaining compatibility with standard MIL-DTL-83513 interfaces.

Replacement Considerations

Cross-reference with VSF-04-40-50-00-N for plastic body alternatives. Verify if metal body variants like VRF-04-40-50-00-J provide necessary environmental protection differences. Always validate pinout and mechanical dimensions against the target application before substitution.
