IT5

connector assembly

The Hirose

IT3/IT5

connector system is a three-piece mezzanine connector. Process-friendly BGA

receptacles are assembled onto PWBs, and separate, configurable interposers complete the

connections between circuit boards. It is available in 100, 200 and 300 signal model. IT3 is

available with tin-lead or lead-free alloy solder balls and IT5 is available in lead-free alloy solder

balls.

1.1

Purpose

This technical bulletin is intended to provide basic information and product features of the

Hirose

IT3/IT5

BGA connector system. By providing this information, Hirose believes it can help

its customers to speed product development, improve quality and reliability, and limit overall

system costs.

1.2 Scope

This guideline provides information useful for applications using the

IT3/IT5

BGA connector

system. It provides information pertaining to:

a) General overview of the connector system

b) Configuration and part numbering

c) PWB design

d) Assembly processing, inspection and repair

This document will be updated by Hirose as required to reflect current technologies and

manufacturing capabilities.
