Surface-mount termination with pick-and-place features means this header is designed for automated assembly on a reflow line — the Tape & Reel package feeds directly into a placement machine. ## 2 A signal duty with 3.94 µinch gold mating finish The 125 VAC/DC rating covers most low-voltage board-level interconnects. The mating contact finish is 3.94 µinch (0.100 µm) gold over copper alloy. For repeated field-service disconnect, a thicker gold sibling (e.g., 8.00 µinch on 1376779-2) would offer more margin against fretting corrosion. ## Unshrouded SMT breakaway — no polarisation, manual alignment This saves board space and cost but requires care during assembly to avoid bent pins. The push-pull fastening means the mated pair is held by contact friction alone — no latch or lock. ## Peer contrast: shrouded through-hole vs. unshrouded SMT Peer 1376779-2 is a 3 A, 250 VAC through-hole header with 8.00 µinch gold mating finish — higher current and thicker gold, but through-hole only. If your design needs the higher current or the thicker gold, that part is a genuine alternative; if you need SMT, 2842142-2 is the only fit.","metaTitle":"2842142-2 TE AMPMODU 2.00 mm 4-Pin Dual-Row SMT Header","metaDescription":"2842142-2 TE Connectivity AMPMODU 4-position, 2.00 mm pitch, dual-row SMT breakaway header. 2 A, gold mating finish.
