DF37C-20DP-0.4V(53) from Hirose Electric Co Ltd is a fine-pitch rectangular board-to-board connector used where compact stacking, low profile, and reliable signal interconnect are important. As part of the DF37 series, this 20-position, 0.40 mm pitch SMT header is well suited for space-constrained embedded hardware such as portable electronics, industrial modules, compact control boards, display assemblies, and other high-density PCB designs. Engineers typically select parts in this category for stable mezzanine connections, predictable board mating height, and efficient automated assembly in tape-and-reel packaging. Based on the provided data, the lifecycle status is currently unknown, so design teams should verify ongoing manufacturer support before committing it to long-term programs. RoHS compliance information is not explicitly provided in the specifications, so compliance should be treated as information not available until confirmed through the official datasheet, manufacturer declarations, or authorized distribution documentation.
