Board-to-Board Fit: Pitch and Stack Height
The 91601-304ALF: The mated stack height of 10.81 mm defines the z-axis clearance between parallel boards; check your enclosure height budget against this dimension before layout. Single-row, 4 circuits loaded all positions – this is a compact signal link for sensor, control, or low-pin-count telecom interfaces. The bottom or top entry style means the same part can serve as a mezzanine bottom-entry receptacle or a top-entry for a cable-to-board harness, giving layout flexibility.
Mating Finish and Cycle Life
In a telecom or automotive environment with quarterly reconnections, the gold interface provides decades of reliable contact. Phosphor bronze contact material with tin-plated solder posts – the tin finish on the termination side ensures good solder wetting during reflow, while the gold mating surface resists corrosion in the unmated state.
