B.2.2 Soldering Type Connector
Details of soldering type connectors and their housings are
summarized below.
Table B.2 Details of soldering type connectors and housings
Connector model
(manufacturer)
Supplementary description
PCR-E20FS (Honda) Soldering type connector for general signals. This is suitable for producing cable
assemblies in small quantities, as well as on-site.
FI40-20S (Hirose) Equivalent to Honda PCR-E20FS
FI40B-20S (Hirose)
(formerly, FI40A-20S)
Has the same number of pins as the FI40-20S, but features a wider soldering pitch,
facilitating soldering and enabling the use of thicker wires. Its reinforced pins allow
wires as thick as #17AWG to be soldered to the FI40B-20S (wires no thicker than
#20AWG can be used with the FI40A-20S). Note, however, that a thick wire, such
as #17AWG, should be used with a more robust housing like the FI-20-CV6.
FI40B-2015S (Hirose)
(formerly, FI40-2015S)
Features a wider soldering pitch, attained by using the space provided by thinning
out some pins. Also features tougher pins, compared with its predecessor, the
FI40-2015S. These pins can be soldered to wires as thick as #17AWG, provided
that the cable diameter does not exceed 8.5 mm.
Housing model (manufacturer) Supplementary description
FI-20-CV5 (Hirose) Should be used with the FI40B-20S. This is a plastic housing designed for use
with a cable that is 9.2 mm in diameter.
FI-20-CV6 (Hirose) Should be used with the FI40B-20S. This housing, however, can be used with a
thicker cable (such as 10.25 mm) than is possible with the FI-20-CV5. Its
components are die cast.
In addition to the combinations shown in Fig. B.2, Hirose
soldering-type connectors can be combined with the housings listed
below. Ensure that the diameter of the cable used with each housing
satisfies the requirements of that housing.
