VSM-05-20-080-50-03-N

Overview

The AirBorn VSM-05-20-080-50-03-N is a vertical male board stacking connector from the verSI series. It features a 1.27 mm pitch and comprises 5 rows with 20 columns, totaling 100 positions. The unit utilizes a liquid crystal polymer (LCP) housing and phosphor bronze contacts with gold plating. Designed for through-hole termination, it supports a maximum board spacing of 8 mm. The connector operates within a temperature range of -55 °C to +125 °C and carries MIL-DTL-83513 classification.

Feature Summary

• Vertical male interface designed for signal integrity in PCB-mount applications
• Constructed with liquid crystal polymer housing and gold-plated phosphor bronze contacts
• Supports through-hole termination styles including paste-in-hole and plated thru-hole

Applications

• Vertical board stacking interconnects
• Signal integrity PCB mounting
• Military specification rectangular plug assemblies

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific termination style code '03' against official documentation to confirm the exact tail length and hole requirements. Confirm that the 'N' suffix denotes the locking jacknut option as specified in the series format. Ensure the LCP material properties meet the thermal requirements of the target application environment before finalizing procurement.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a vertical male connection with a 1.27 mm pitch is required. Ensure the design accommodates the 8 mm board spacing limit. Verify that the through-hole termination method aligns with the manufacturing process capabilities. Confirm that the operating temperature range meets the environmental constraints of the system.

Part Context

This part belongs to the AirBorn verSI series, which provides high-density rectangular connectors. The series offers various row and column configurations to support different circuit counts. The VSM designation specifically indicates a vertical male orientation, distinguishing it from other series variants like VRRAM or VSF.

Replacement Considerations

Consult the official AirBorn database for direct substitutes. Verify compatibility of mating interfaces and mounting dimensions if considering alternative manufacturers.
