NI sbRIO-9651 System on Module Carrier Board Design Guide
Table 4-3 provides an example standoff height calculation using a Molex 45970-4130 mating
connector.
NI Custom Standoffs
NI offers a custom standoff that is an exact fit with the recommended or other compatible 7-mm
stack height mating connectors listed in Table 4-1. This custom M3 × 7.15 mm (0.281 in.) is
made from 4.5 mm (0.177 in.) stainless steel hex stock and includes a nylon threadlock patch.
The external threads extend 4.78 mm (0.188 in.) and the internal threads are 5 mm (0.197 in.)
deep. Table 4-4 lists orderable quantities of this custom standoff.
NI recommends that you use stainless steel fasteners for good corrosion resistance and strength.
Tighten M3 fasteners to a torque of 0.76 N · m (6.70 lb · in), unless otherwise noted or required
by your specific design constraints.
