1.0 OBJECTIVE
This specification provides information and requirements regarding customer application of Metral B series
vertical solder to board receptacles. This specification is intended to provide general guidance for process
development. It is recognized that no single process will work under all customer applications and that customers
will develop their processes to meet their needs. However, FCI cannot guarantee results if these processes vary
from the recommendations.
2.0 SCOPE
This specification provides information and requirements regarding customer application of Metral
vertical solder to board receptacles.

5.0 APPLICATION INFORMATION
5.1 General Product Information
Figure 1: 4 row vertical solder to board signal receptacle.
5.1.1 Location peg information
There are two location pegs on the bottom side of the connector. These pegs perform two functions:
1) They properly locate the connector onto the PCB
2) They serve as a retention feature during the subsequent soldering process

For a vertical receptacle assembly the number location pegs will determine the force required to properly apply the
assembly to the board before soldering. The recommended insertion force for each location peg is 53 N (12 lbf).

receptacle connectors include:
Standard module size is 12 mm.
4 row and 5 row configurations are available.
Each 4 row 12mm module contains 24 signal terminals or 8 power terminals.
Each 5 row 12mm module contains 30 signal terminals or 10 power terminals.
Signal terminals are located on a 2 mm x 2 mm grid for high signal density.
1, 2, 4, and 8 module connectors are standard. Other sizes are available.
Standard tail lengths include 2.65mm (for use with a 1.6mm nominal thickness PCB), 3.45mm (for use
with a 2.4mm nominal thickness PCB), and 4.25mm (for use with a 3.2mm nominal thickness PCB)
Terminals may be selectively loaded.
Available accessories which are end-to-end stackable include guide, keying, DIN power, and Din coax.
