Frequently Asked Questions

What contact finish does the QTE-040-04-L-D-A-K use and why does it matter for reliability?

The QTE-040-04-L-D-A-K features 10 µin gold over 50 µin nickel plating on the mating contacts. This gold finish provides low and stable contact resistance, excellent corrosion resistance, and support for high-cycle mating applications, making it well suited for systems requiring repeated board insertion and removal.

How many signal connections does the QTE-040-04-L-D-A-K provide per connector?

The QTE-040-04-L-D-A-K offers 80 positions arranged in a dual-row layout at 0.040 inch (1.00 mm) pitch. This density allows up to 80 simultaneous signal, power, or ground connections in a compact board-stacking footprint, enabling high-bandwidth interfaces between stacked PCBs.

Which board-to-board stacking applications is the QTE-040-04-L-D-A-K best suited for?

This 80-position, 1.00 mm pitch male board stacking connector suits FPGA mezzanine cards, embedded computing modules, telecom line cards, and industrial field-replaceable units where high-density dual-row interfaces are needed with phosphor bronze contacts and gold-plated mating surfaces for sustained reliability.

What is the typical lead time for the QTE-040-04-L-D-A-K and how does it affect procurement planning?

The QTE-040-04-L-D-A-K carries a factory lead time of approximately 2 weeks and 5 days for standard production quantities. Procurement teams should account for this lead time when planning board-level assembly schedules, especially for 80-position high-density connectors required in volume production runs.
