Key Features
- 4-position male rectangular board connector on a 1.25 mm pitch fitting into a compact 6.6 mm x 5.4 mm body for extremely space-constrained PCB layouts
- DF13-series wire-to-board design with positive locking latch mechanism ensuring secure connection retention against vibration and cable tension in portable and wearable applications
- Compatible with DF13-series female crimp housings and AWG 28–26 wire, supporting flexible cable harness assembly for consumer electronics and robotics designs
Applications
The DF13-4P-1.25DS(50) is widely used in compact consumer electronics, hobby robotics platforms, and drone flight controllers where a secure, miniature 4-pin wire-to-board connection at 1.25 mm pitch is needed in very limited board space. Its locking connector design and compatibility with pre-crimped cable assemblies also make it a standard interface on RC receivers, small battery management modules, and wearable sensor boards requiring reliable, rework-friendly cable connections.

Frequently Asked Questions
What pitch and position count does the DF13-4P-1.25DS(50) use, and how does its body size compare to common alternatives?
The DF13-4P-1.25DS(50) is a 4-position connector with a 1.25 mm pitch. Its body measures approximately 6.6 mm long by 5.4 mm wide by 3.4 mm tall, making it significantly more compact than equivalent 2.54 mm pitch connectors and well suited for miniaturized boards in drones, wearables, and portable instruments.
For a drone flight controller with multiple peripheral connectors, what wire gauge is compatible with the DF13-4P-1.25DS(50)?
The DF13-4P-1.25DS(50) is compatible with Hirose DF13-series female crimp housings using AWG 28 to AWG 26 wire (approximately 0.08 mm² to 0.13 mm² cross-section). This fine wire gauge is standard in lightweight cable harnesses for drone electronics, RC receivers, and miniature sensor modules where cable mass and diameter are critical design constraints.
How does the locking mechanism of the DF13-4P-1.25DS(50) prevent accidental disconnection during operation?
The DF13-series features a positive-locking friction latch where the female housing clicks over the male connector body, requiring deliberate side-press release before unmating. This prevents cable pull-out forces up to the latch rating from disconnecting the 4-pin interface during vibration or mechanical stress, which is critical in flight controllers and mobile robotics that experience continuous dynamic loading.
What is the current rating per contact for the DF13-4P-1.25DS(50), and does it suit low-power sensor supply lines?
Hirose DF13-series contacts are rated for approximately 1 A per contact at up to 50 V working voltage. For the 4-position DF13-4P-1.25DS(50), this supports powering 3.3 V or 5 V sensor modules drawing up to 1 A total, as well as carrying I2C, UART, or analog signal lines simultaneously across the 4 pins.
