VSRAF-06-40-50-06-N

Overview

The VSRAF-06-40-50-06-N is a rectangular military specification receptacle from the AirBorn verSI series, manufactured by Molex. It features a 0.050-inch (1.27 mm) pitch with a metal body and right-angle orientation. The connector provides 240 positions arranged in 6 rows and 40 columns, utilizing press-fit termination for board mounting. Contacts are gold-plated sockets designed for reliable signal transmission. This component complies with MIL-DTL-83513 standards, ensuring durability in demanding environments.

Feature Summary

• Complies with MIL-DTL-83513 military specifications for high reliability
• Utilizes press-fit termination technology for secure board mounting
• Features a robust metal housing for enhanced mechanical protection
• Designed with right-angle orientation to optimize PCB space utilization

Applications

• Avionics systems requiring high-density interconnects
• Military communication equipment
• Radar and electronic warfare systems
• Industrial control modules in harsh environments

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix against the manufacturer's current datasheet to ensure compatibility with required termination styles and contact plating. Confirm that the press-fit variant matches the target PCB design constraints. Check for any recent updates to the MIL-DTL-83513 standard that may affect qualification requirements. Ensure environmental sealing needs are addressed if operating in exposed conditions.

Selection Notes

Select this part when a high-density, right-angle receptacle is required for MIL-Spec applications. The 0.050-inch pitch allows for significant circuit density within a compact footprint. Verify that the PCB layout supports press-fit assembly processes. Consider the metal body construction for superior shielding and mechanical strength compared to plastic alternatives in rugged deployments.

Part Context

This component belongs to the AirBorn verSI series, known for its versatility in military and aerospace connectors. The series offers various configurations to meet diverse interface needs while maintaining strict adherence to military standards. The VSRAF designation indicates a specific receptacle configuration within this broad family of high-reliability interconnect solutions.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes must match the 240-position count, 0.050-inch pitch, and MIL-DTL-83513 compliance. Verify pinout compatibility and physical dimensions before substitution. Cross-reference with other manufacturers offering equivalent MIL-Spec rectangular connectors if AirBorn supply is limited.
