Packaging & ESD

Industry-standard static shielding packaging is used for electronic components.Anti-static, light-transparent materials allow easy identification of ICs and PCB assemblies.
The packaging structure provides electrostatic protection based on Faraday cage principles.This helps protect sensitive components from static discharge during handling and transportation.


All products are packed in ESD-safe anti-static packaging. Outer packaging labels include part number, brand, and quantity for clear identification. Goods are inspected prior to shipment to ensure proper condition and authenticity.

ESD protection is maintained throughout packing, handling, and global transportation. Secure packaging provides reliable sealing and resistance during transit. Additional cushioning materials are applied when required to protect sensitive components.

Frequently Asked Questions

What card thickness range is the 387-006-540-668 connector designed to accept, and how does this affect PCB layout planning?
The 387-006-540-668 is specified for card thickness between 0.054" and 0.070" (1.37mm to 1.78mm). During design, verify your PCB thickness falls within this window; cards outside this range may not seat reliably or may damage the cantilever contacts. Thinner PCBs risk incomplete contact engagement, while thicker boards can bend the female contact arms excessively, leading to intermittent connections or accelerated wear.
Can the 387-006-540-668 be used in applications requiring frequent mating and unmating cycles, or is it better suited for fixed installations?
The 387-006-540-668 uses gold-plated copper alloy cantilever contacts with 10.0µin finish thickness. Frequent insertion-removal cycles will gradually wear the gold plating; the connector is better suited for semi-permanent or fixed installations where mating occurs during assembly or occasional maintenance rather than daily cycling. If your application demands frequent disconnection, consider connectors with thicker gold or harder contact materials rated for higher cycle counts.
How does the single-edge, single-row configuration of the 387-006-540-668 limit signal routing compared to dual-edge alternatives?
The 387-006-540-668 provides only six positions in a single row on one edge, accommodating a maximum of six signal paths or power rails. Designs requiring more than six independent connections will need multiple connectors or alternative form factors such as dual-edge or multi-row solutions. The single-edge layout simplifies PCB routing on one side but constrains backplane or mezzanine interconnect density.
What is the pitch specification for the 387-006-540-668, and does it impose constraints on high-speed signal integrity?
The 387-006-540-668 has a 0.156" (3.96mm) pitch. This relatively coarse spacing provides good noise immunity for low-speed or DC applications but may introduce crosstalk or transmission-line effects in high-frequency designs. For signals above a few megahertz, verify impedance matching and consider shielding or differential pair routing; standard PCB trace spacing at 3.96mm pitch may not support controlled impedance for RF or high-speed digital signals without careful layout.
The 387-006-540-668 specifies wire wrap termination—what are the practical advantages and limitations of this connection method?
Wire wrap termination on the 387-006-540-668 allows reliable, solderable connections without thermal stress to the connector body, and connections are easily modified or reworked by unwrapping wire. However, wire wrap requires specialized tooling and is slower than soldering during production, adding labor cost. The method is common in legacy or aerospace equipment but less common in modern mass production; if your supply chain or repair procedures expect soldered pins or press-fit contacts, migration may be necessary.
Is the 387-006-540-668 suitable for outdoor or high-vibration industrial environments, and what precautions should be taken?
The 387-006-540-668 operates from -40°C to 105°C, covering wide industrial temperature swings. However, the through-hole wire wrap termination may loosen under sustained mechanical vibration if not properly secured; potting, cable strain relief, or mechanical locking of wire wrap joints is advisable in high-vibration chassis. The single-edge female design also offers no keying, so accidental backward insertion is possible—implement mechanical guides or polarizing features at the board level to prevent misinsertion.
What are the compliance certifications for the 387-006-540-668, and does it meet modern regulatory requirements?
The 387-006-540-668 is RoHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected, meeting current EU environmental standards. However, compliance does not guarantee suitability for medical, automotive, or aerospace qualification unless the specific end application has qualified this part number. Verify with your supply chain or quality department whether 387-006-540-668 is listed on your approved parts list for your target market or regulatory domain.
How can the 387-006-540-668 be integrated into a design that requires keying or polarization to prevent reverse insertion?
The 387-006-540-668 itself has no built-in keying feature. To prevent reverse insertion, implement mechanical keying at the PCB or chassis level—such as a notch or guide pin on the mating card, or a polarizing bracket on the 387-006-540-668 connector housing. Alternatively, document clear visual markings and assembly procedures; reliance on procedure alone is less robust than mechanical keying, especially in field service environments.
What alternatives exist if the 387-006-540-668 becomes obsolete or unavailable, and what are the migration considerations?
If the 387-006-540-668 (Mercury part in the 387 series) becomes unavailable, mechanical alternatives include DIN 41612 female connectors or other 0.156" pitch card edge connectors from suppliers such as TE Connectivity or Molex. Migration requires verification that alternative part numbers accept the same card thickness (0.054"–0.070"), use compatible contact materials and plating, and support wire wrap or your preferred termination method. Test compatibility before full production migration to confirm mating consistency and electrical performance.
Does the 387-006-540-668 require any special storage or handling to maintain contact plating integrity before assembly?
The gold-plated contacts on the 387-006-540-668 should be stored in a dry, temperature-controlled environment (ideally 15–25°C, <65% RH) and protected from corrosive gases or humidity. Avoid touching contact surfaces with bare hands; oils and moisture can degrade the gold plating over time. Store in original packaging or sealed containers; once opened, use the connector within a reasonable timeframe to minimize atmospheric exposure.
