The open-top design allows probing or daisy-chaining with a second shunt, useful during board bring-up or rework. ## Pitch, current, and contact finish that define the fit The 3 A per-contact rating is adequate for signal-level shorting; if used in a power path, derate per the temperature rise of the surrounding circuit. Gold plating at 16.0 µin (0.41 µm) on the contact surface ensures reliable low-level signal switching over repeated mating cycles. Tin-plated shunts are cheaper but wear faster in frequent connect/disconnect applications — gold is the right choice for programming headers or test points. ## Mating and board height The shunt sits 0.248\" (6.30 mm) above the board surface when mated, a low profile that fits within a 0.5\" board-to-board spacing envelope. It mates with any AMPMODU Mod IV or compatible 0.025\" square-header post on 0.100\" pitch — no special keying or polarization.","metaTitle":"142270-1 TE AMPMODU Mod IV 2-Position Shunt, 0.100\" Pitch","metaDescription":"142270-1 TE Connectivity AMPMODU Mod IV open-top shunt, 2 positions (1x2), 0.100\" pitch, 3 A, gold 16.0µin finish, UL94 V-0, ROHS3, active.
