Gold GXT™ Mating Surface vs Tin Siblings
Compare that to the tin-plated 98401-402A12LF (same pitch, same 12 positions) where tin is good for maybe 50 cycles before oxidation raises contact resistance. The 95278-801A08LF (8-position, same gold GXT™) is a shorter sibling for lower-density layouts; the 95278-101A08LF upgrades to 30.0 µinch gold for even higher cycle life in field-service applications.
SMD Termination and Board Retention
No through-hole staking needed. Unshrouded means the male pins are exposed after mating — the mating half must provide the shroud or housing to protect the interface from accidental shorting.
RoHS compliant.
