■Overview
Developed for inspection of high frequency
circuits used in portable terminals.Verification of
the circuit performance is
accomplished by
simply inserting the external plug
in the board
mounted receptacle.This action re-directs the
circuit from normal condition to the plug side.
Removing the plug restores circuit to its normal
condition.

BPrecautions
MS-156C3
Web tab
Mounted substrate
-Example of incorrect mounting- -Recommended example-
-Example of a PCB after mounting the MS-156C3-
(Position relation between MS-156C3 and the web tab)
Optimal design with no web tab near
the MS-156C3.
MS-156C3
If the MS-156C3 is mounted too close to a web tab, there is a possibility that
fine powder residue generated during depaneling could infiltrate the MS-156C3
swich and cause damage.
Design with no web tab
near MS-156C3
1. Mounting this product using PCB patterns or metal mask dimensions other than the ones
specified, may result in a product malfunction due to solder and/or flux wicking.
2. Cross-hatched area shown on the PCB mounting pattern must be free of any conducive traces.
Placing conductive traces in this area may affect performance and will void product warranties.
When the bottom surface of the product (i.e., the shaded area of the specified land
dimensions diagram on the previous page) has been processed with a susbtrate copper trace
and resist processing, Hirose Electric will not be able to warrant the product.
3. Do not use hand soldering for mounting of MS-156C3.
Doing so could result in solder and flux wicking to the contact areas.
4. Exercise caution as not to allow any debris to enter the board mounted MS-156C when cutting
PCB.
5. This product is intended for use only in testing the circuit.
It cannot be used as an interface.
6. Please refrain from using the product in environments specifically affected by excessive
vibration, shock, dust, high humidity, gases, very high temperatures and very low temperatures
such as outdoor equipment. It might cause degradation or destruction of the product.Even if it
endures during a short time, long time quarification is not quaranteed.
7. Plugs can be roughly classified to two types.
- For mass production line automatic check (Press down type)
- For manual check (With retentive lock) : Unable to be used at production line.
8. Do not use the washing process.
9. Please use a design in which the device housing does not exert pressure or force on the
MS-156C in the event that the finished device is accidently dropped.
10. Do not apply heat(heat gun or hot plate) over 260ç for more than 10 seconds. Exceeding this
thermal limit could cause the resin to melt and cause deformation.
11. When automatic inspections are to be performed during the manufacturing operations, request
the MS-156 plug connector manual for examples of implementation.
