AMP-HDI* High Density
Interconnection Printed Circuit
(PC) Board Connectors 18 AUG 11 Rev A
Figure 1
1. INTRODUCTION
This instruction sheet covers the contacts,
accessories, mounting procedures, and pc board
layout dimensions recommended for the AMP-HDI
connectors listed in Figure 1.
Read these instructions carefully before installing or
assembling the connectors.
Figures and illustrations are for reference only and
are not drawn to scale.
2. DESCRIPTION
AMP-HDI pin and receptacle connectors are available
with two, three, or four rows of contacts, on a .100-in.
grid, totaling a maximum of 684 positions.
The connectors feature pin headers with ACTION
PIN* contacts; four-point, box-type receptacle
contacts; and a 64-combination keying arrangement.
One or two guide pins are used to facilitate reliable
mating of long connectors.
3. INSTALLING AMP-HDI CONNECTORS
3.1. Pin Connectors
When installing a pin connector into a pc board,
use of an insertion fixture is recommended to
protect the posts of the ACTION PIN contacts and
to support the connector and pc board in the
machine base. The insertion fixture is designed by
the customer for the specific connector size.
The connectors can be inserted into the pc board by
using the insertion tool listed in Figure 2 and by using
a power unit which is required for larger connectors
and larger pc boards.
Proceed as follows:
1. Place the pc board on top of the insertion fixture.
2. Align pc board holes with insertion fixture holes,
and loosely press connector contact posts through
holes in pc board and insertion fixture.
3. Select the appropriate insertion tool, and position
the tool in the top of the connector. See Figure 2.
4. Adjust the power unit to correct shut-height.

5. Center connector under power unit and cycle
machine to insert connector.
6. Remove connector from power unit.
The maximum allowable gap between seated
connector and pc board is 0.25 mm [.010 in.].
3.2. Receptacle Connectors (Figure 3)
Receptacle connectors are installed into pc boards
by using Alignment Tool 532925 which aids in the
insertion of the connector into the pc board. The
tool is available in three lengths which incorporate
75, 135, and 180 contact positions, and the tool
featuresacam-actuatedleverto “open”and“close”
the tool on the receptacle contacts.
Refer to Figure 3 and proceed as follows:
1. Determine number of contact positions in the
assembly being mounted. Make a layout on the pc
board, using the recommended dimensions
provided in Figure 7.
2. Select proper tool, and adjust cam lever to
vertical position to place tool in “open” position.
3. Place contacts in alignment holes of tool, and
adjust lever to horizontal position to “close” the
alignment tool on contacts.
4. Place receptacle contacts through pc board holes
to position connector on pc board.
Figure 3
5. Adjust lever of tool to “open” position and slide
alignment tool from between the connector and pc
board.
6. Fasten connector to the pc board with
appropriate hardware.
7. Solder contacts to pc board using a standard
soldering technique.
4. REPLACING DAMAGED CONTACT
The pin and contact replacement tool, shown in
Figure 4 is used to replace ACTION PIN contacts on
pc boards and panels.

The tool features a spring-loaded, internally-threaded
tip. The removal and replacement tips are designed to
remove or replace contacts of specific types and sizes.
The replacement tool tip is threaded into the tip of the
standard tool and fits onto the appropriate contact to
be replaced.
Forproperremovalandreplacementofthecontact,
the specified tool tips must be used. Replacement
tips can be obtained through your local
TE Connectivity Representative.
4.1. Contact Removal (Figure 5)
1. Thread the contact removal tip into the tip of the
replacement tool.
2. Position contact removal tip over square post of
contact.
3. Holding replacement tool and pc board firmly,
push contact out of the pc board and housing.
If the pc board or panel hasbeen soldered, contact
removal requires use of a soldering iron along with
the replacement tool for Steps 2 and 3. Hold hot tip
of soldering iron against the pin to be removed,
NOT against the pc board or panel. After the
contact is removed, use a .038-in. drill bit to clean
and size the hole for contact replacement. Do NOT
re-use ACTION PIN contacts that have been
removed.
Figure 5
4.2. Replacing Pin Contacts (Figure 6)
1. Thread appropriate ACTION PIN contact
replacement tip into tip of replacement tool.
2. After removing damaged contact, insert
replacement contact.
3. Fit hole in replacement tip over contact, rotate
tool 90° to locate contact in position, and apply force
in direction of arrow. See Figure 6.
The shoulder of contact must align with slot of
replacement tip before applying force to
replacement contact.
4. After applying force on contact to fully seat the
contact, the contact shoulder should be flush with
housing.
5. Remove replacement tool from contact.
