Board Layout Fit: 2.00mm Pitch, 6 Positions, SMT
The 55510-306: This is a 6-position, dual-row board-to-board receptacle on 2.00mm pitch — the footprint needs two rows spaced 2.00mm apart, with SMT pads for each of the six positions. The 0.177" (4.50mm) insulation height gives a moderate stack height for mezzanine or parallel-board connections. The 2A ceiling is typical for a signal-level interconnect at this pitch; the wide temperature range suits industrial and medical enclosures that see thermal cycling.
Sourcing a Discontinued Part
This is a receptacle with female socket contacts, push-pull fastening, designed to mate with a 2.00mm pitch pin header (male pins). The square contact shape and 2-row layout match the Minitek 2.00mm header series — confirm the header's pin count and orientation before committing the BOM. Termination is solder — surface-mount pads on the PCB. The SMT package comes in a tube; no tape-and-reel option is listed, so hand placement or tube-fed pick-and-place is the assembly path.
