Frequently Asked Questions
How many positions does the QTH-030-05-F-D-A provide and what is the contact pitch?
The QTH-030-05-F-D-A is a dual-row connector with 30 positions per row for a total of 60 contacts at a 0.5 mm pitch. This fine pitch enables high-density signal routing between stacked PCBs in embedded computing, wireless modules, and FPGA carrier card assemblies where space is limited.
What contact finish does the QTH-030-05-F-D-A use and how does it affect connector reliability?
The QTH-030-05-F-D-A uses gold flash over nickel contact plating, providing corrosion resistance and low contact resistance across repeated mating cycles. Gold-flash finish is suitable for low-cycle board stacking applications of up to approximately 30 insertions, making it cost-effective for production PCB assemblies and field-replaceable module designs.
How does the polarized peg mounting feature of the QTH-030-05-F-D-A prevent assembly errors?
The peg mounting feature on the QTH-030-05-F-D-A physically prevents 180-degree mis-insertion by aligning the polarized peg with a corresponding slot on the mating board, eliminating the risk of reversed connections in automated surface-mount assembly lines. This is critical in high-density 0.5 mm pitch designs where visual inspection alone is insufficient to detect connector orientation errors.
In which types of multi-board embedded systems is the QTH-030-05-F-D-A typically used?
The QTH-030-05-F-D-A is commonly used in stackable embedded system architectures such as SOM (System on Module) carrier boards, FPGA mezzanine card (FMC) adapters, and 5G radio unit expansion boards. Its 60-contact capacity and 0.5 mm pitch allow routing of multiple high-speed differential pairs, power rails, and control signals within a body measuring less than 20 mm in length.
