Custom Micro-Coax Assemblies for Fine-Pitch Interconnects
Select by exact mating set, supported wire, signal and ground map, installed geometry, and test boundary
This pillar covers the manufacturer-level micro-coax request. Connector portfolios from I-PEX, Hirose, KEL, JAE, Molex, and others are selection inputs only; release requires both complete mating codes, supported cable construction, contact map, shielding and grounding, termination geometry, route, strain relief, and project test plan. Use a pitch, CABLINE, or TDR/VNA child page only when that narrower decision drives the RFQ.

SEC · 01Product Specifications Overview
Select by Connector, Cross-Section, Shielding, or Electrical Target
Start from the constraint that is already locked. A complete connector pair leads to a connector-specific review; routing cross-section leads to pitch and wire selection; EMI constraints lead to shielding and grounding review; and electrical evidence requires a project-defined TDR or VNA method. One RFQ can combine these paths without treating a family name or nominal parameter as a release specification.
SPECIFICATION TABLEROWS · 09
| 01 | Connector References | I-PEX, Hirose, KEL, JAE, Molex, Amphenol, JST, TE, and other systems; confirm complete mating part numbers and sourcing basis |
| 02 | Pitch Range | Connector-series and part-number dependent; pitch is confirmed from the released mating interface rather than a common family range |

| 04 | Wire Gauge (AWG) | Selected from the wire sizes and constructions supported by the exact connector, termination process, route, and electrical requirements |
| 05 | Impedance | Interface-specific single-ended or differential target, tolerance, frequency scope, and test method defined by the project |
| 06 | Cable Length | Custom length subject to routing, loss, bend and validation requirements |
| 07 | Shielding | Construction and termination selected for the project grounding and EMI plan |
| 08 | Temperature | Limited by the selected wire, connector, termination, materials, route, and agreed system validation conditions |

Engineering & DFM
Micro-coaxial engineering starts with the complete mating definition and installed route. The connector subseries and suffix, supported wire, pinout, shield termination, grounding, bend zones, strain relief, and validation method must resolve into one released drawing before sample results can represent production.
01
Requirement Analysis
Receive complete cable-side and board-side part numbers, mating views, pinout, wire and length requirements, route drawing, shielding and grounding, strain relief, and electrical validation scope.
02
Material Selection & Feasibility
Verify that the exact connector supports the selected wire and termination, then review stripping, shield handling, conductor exposure, termination access, bend zones, and route feasibility.
03
Engineering Drawing
Issue controlled engineering drawings with complete pinout definitions, dimensions, BOM, and process requirements. IPC/WHMA-A-620 workmanship criteria can be referenced where the approved project specification requires them.
04
Customer Approval and Release
Use the approved drawing, sample definition, and agreed validation results as the release basis for the active project revision.

SEC · 05Quality Assurance
Quality Assurance System
Quality evidence must correspond to the exact connector and wire combination, termination process, shield and grounding definition, and drawing revision. Impedance, flex, pull, thermal, or other reliability results apply only to the agreed method, fixture, conditions, limits, sample scope, and system validation boundary.
QA · 01
Process Standards & Defect Prevention
Review conductor damage, termination quality, shield handling, insulation or jacket damage, connector seating, and strain-relief execution against the released workmanship and inspection criteria.
QA · 02
Testing Capabilities
Continuity, shorts, insulation and visual workmanship are selected from the released control plan. Pull-force sampling, Hi-Pot, TDR or VNA review is added only when the assembly construction and agreed project test scope require it; fixture, reference plane, limits and sampling must be defined before results are compared.
QA · 03
Quality Documentation
Project release files can include FAIR, IQC or OQC records, agreed test reports, and CoC. Current ISO 9001:2015, ISO 13485, or applicable UL documents are provided only where the issued document scope and project requirements support them.

Connector-Led Selection Examples
These examples show how buyers should frame a connector-led review; the connector name remains a reference until the full mating parts, wire, route, and validation scope are confirmed.
CASE · 01
Hirose DF56-Referenced Medical Imaging Route
- Confirm the complete DF56 mating parts and released pinout rather than the series name alone
- Define the imaging module route, shielding and grounding, strain relief, and device revision
- Tie any electrical or reliability evidence to the agreed fixture, method, sample scope, and medical-device validation plan
- Continue to the medical-imaging path when the device context and validation boundary lead the selection
CASE · 02
I-PEX CABLINE-VS-Referenced Camera Route
- Confirm the exact CABLINE subseries, both mating part numbers, pin count, supported wire, and tail orientation
- Define camera-side routing, shield termination, grounding, fixing points, and service space
- Agree the electrical target, fixture, reference plane, limits, sample quantity, and report before testing
- Continue to the CABLINE connector path when the mating interface is already locked
CASE · 03
KEL USL-Referenced Compact Display Route
- Confirm USL rather than SSL and use the complete cable-side and board-side part numbers
- Apply only the selected USL part's supported pitch, wire, mating direction, mounting height, and grounding details
- Release the route and batch definition only after connector fit and installed-space validation
- Continue to the KEL connector path for the series-specific compatibility review
SEC · 07Order Process
Order Process & Delivery
Most micro-coaxial programs move through scope definition, engineering review, sample validation, and controlled production. The clearer that path is, the easier it becomes for sourcing and engineering teams to move the project forward.
01
Inquiry & Quote
Submit complete mating part numbers, pinout, wire construction, length and route, shielding and grounding, validation scope, quantity, and required records for a project-specific quotation.
02
Engineering Review
Prepare a controlled project drawing with connector references, mating views, pinout, dimensions, materials, shielding and grounding, strain relief, and inspection requirements.
03
Customer Approval
Production starts only after drawing approval so the released build can be checked against the agreed connector, pinout, dimensions, materials and validation requirements.
04
Manufacturing
Sample and production timing is confirmed after connector availability, material readiness, process complexity, quantity and the required validation scope are reviewed. Rush feasibility is assessed without removing agreed inspection steps.
05
QA & Shipping
Complete the inspection and test coverage defined by the released control plan, then pack and ship with the records agreed for that project.
06
Post-Delivery Support
Keep issue review, revision changes, replacement scope, and repeat-order records tied to the released project definition.
