Frequently Asked Questions
What is the mounting configuration of the EU16F2B3N11377SR Type-C receptacle?
It utilizes a hybrid mounting design: 16 surface-mount (SMT) signal/power contacts combined with 4 through-hole (1.0mm DIP tail length) shell retention stakes for maximum PCB hold-down strength.
What are the mechanical mating force and durability ratings?
According to the engineering drawing, the connector requires 5N to 20N insertion force, 8N to 20N extraction force, and is rated for a minimum durability of 10,000 mating cycles.
Do you offer custom tape and reel packaging for automated assembly?
Absolutely. Our SMT connectors come standard in EIA-compliant tape and reel packaging optimized for automated pick-and-place machines. We can also adjust packaging specifications based on your specific SMT line requirements.
What certifications do your electronic connectors hold?
Our USB connectors are fully RoHS and REACH compliant, and they are manufactured within an ISO 9001-certified facility. Each batch undergoes strict automated optical inspection (AOI) and mechanical durability testing.
What is the typical lead time for bulk orders?
Standard production lead times are typically 2 to 4 weeks depending on the volume. For urgent project timelines, we offer expedited production schedules and rapid prototyping options within 3 to 5 days.
Overview and Application Notes
-
Overview: Engineered for high-density, space-constrained electronic devices, the EU16F2B3N11377SR is a compact USB 3.1 Type-C 16-pin female receptacle featuring an on-board depth of 6.50mm (top-mount configuration). Designed with high-temperature UL94V-0 black LCP housing, an internal stainless steel mid-plate, and Au/Tin plated copper alloy contacts, it supports high-efficiency power transfer (5A on VBUS, 0.25A on signal pins) and stable USB 2.0 high-speed data transmission. The hybrid mounting architecture—combining 16 SMT signal contacts with 4 robust through-hole (1.00mm tail length) shell hold-downs—provides excellent peel resistance and withstands 10,000 mating cycles. As a factory-direct OEM/ODM solution, it delivers exceptional EMI shielding and automated tape-and-reel assembly compatibility for modern consumer and industrial hardware.
-
Hybrid SMT & DIP Layout: Features 16 surface-mount signal contacts paired with 4 through-hole shell mounting stakes (1.00mm DIP tail length); ensure PCB hole diameters and paste stencils follow the recommended footprint for solid mechanical anchoring.
-
Compact 6.50mm On-Board Profile: The body depth on PCB is exactly 6.50mm; maintain proper front-panel clearance and verify keep-out zones around the connector edges during layout.
-
Reflow Soldering Stability: Molded from high-temperature UL94V-0 LCP thermoplastic; strictly follow standard lead-free reflow profiles (peak temperature up to 260°C) to prevent housing warpage.
-
EMI Shielding & Retention: The nickel-plated stainless steel shell and internal mid-plate ensure continuous 360-degree shielding while withstanding 5N–20N insertion force and 8N–20N extraction force across 10,000 mating cycles.
