VSM-04-30-100-50-00-L

Overview

The VSM-04-30-100-50-00-L is a rectangular MIL-DTL-83513 series plug manufactured by Molex / AirBorn. It features a 1.27 mm pitch with 4 rows and 30 columns, providing 120 circuits. The connector utilizes a plastic body constructed from Liquid Crystal Polymer (LCP) and employs a vertical press-fit termination style for board mounting. Contact materials consist of Beryllium Copper with gold plating. Rated for 2 A current and 200 V voltage, it operates within a temperature range of -55 C to +125 C.

Feature Summary

• Vertical male interface designed for PCB-mount applications requiring signal integrity
• Press-fit termination style ensures secure connection through mechanical interference
• Liquid Crystal Polymer body provides robust insulation and thermal stability

Applications

• Vertical board stacking interconnects
• High-density military electronic systems
• Signal integrity critical circuit boards

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix against the manufacturer's latest datasheet to confirm termination type and plating specifications. Ensure compatibility with mating receptacles regarding row count and column alignment. Confirm that the press-fit termination matches the target PCB hole specifications for proper mechanical retention and electrical contact.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a vertical male interface with press-fit termination is required for MIL-DTL-83513 compliance. The 1.27 mm pitch supports high-density layouts. Verify that the LCP housing material meets environmental requirements and that the gold-plated beryllium copper contacts satisfy conductivity needs for the intended signal loads.

Part Context

This part belongs to the AirBorn verSI series, which offers ruggedized rectangular connectors compliant with MIL-DTL-83513 standards. The series includes various termination options such as press-fit and plated thru-hole, catering to diverse board stacking and interconnection needs in demanding environments.

Replacement Considerations

Compatible substitutes include other VSM series variants with matching row and column counts. Ensure any replacement maintains the 1.27 mm pitch and press-fit termination style for direct interchangeability without redesigning the PCB footprint.
