For this order code, all 4 positions are loaded, so you get a fixed 4-pin header without extra break-off tabs. The 3 A rating is typical for signal-level loads on this pitch; the current is limited by the pin cross-section and the housing temperature rise, not the contact interface. ## Gold Mating Finish for Repeated Connect Cycles The mating surface carries 30 µinch gold over nickel. That plating grade supports 500+ mating cycles without significant wear, which matters if this header lives in a test fixture or a field-service panel where the connector gets disconnected and reconnected regularly. ## Through-Hole Mount, Unshrouded Profile Through-hole termination with a 0.090\" (2.29mm) post length — the pins sit flush enough for single-sided boards but still give a solid solder fillet. Unshrouded means the pins are exposed after mating — no plastic shroud to guide or protect the receptacle.","metaTitle":"5-146285-4 TE Connectivity AMPMODU Mod II Header, 4 Pos","metaDescription":"5-146285-4 TE Connectivity AMPMODU Mod II unshrouded breakaway header, 4 positions, 0.100\" (2.54mm) pitch, 3A, gold mating finish.","metaKeywords":null},"attributes":{"series":null,"packageCase":null,"mountingType":null,"rohsStatus":null,"productStatus":"Active","categoryPath":["Pin Headers, Sockets & Housings"],"specifications":{"Mfr":"TE Connectivity AMP Connectors","Style":"Board to Board or Cable","Series":"AMPMODU Mod II","Package":"Bulk","Features":"-","Shrouding":"Unshrouded","Termination":"Solder","Applications":"-","Contact Type":"Male Pin","Contact Shape":"Square","Mounting Type":"Through Hole","Connector Type":"Header, Breakaway","Fastening Type":"Push-Pull","Number of Rows":"1","Pitch - Mating":"0.100\\\" (2.54mm)","Product Status":"Active","Voltage Rating":"-","lifecycle_stage":"unknown","Contact Material":"Copper Alloy","Insulation Color":"Black","Insulation Height":"0.090\\\" (2.29mm)","Ingress Protection":"-","Base Product Number":"146285","Insulation Material":"Liquid Crystal Polymer (LCP)","Number of Positions":"4","Row Spacing - Mating":"-","Contact Finish - Post":"Tin","Contact Length - Post":"0.090\\\" (2.29mm)","Current Rating (Amps)":"3A","Operating Temperature":"-65°C ~ 105°C","Mated Stacking Heights":"-","Overall Contact Length":"0.410\\\" (10.41mm)","Contact Finish - Mating":"Gold","Contact Length - Mating":"0.230\\\" (5.84mm)","Number of Positions Loaded":"All","Material Flammability Rating":"UL94 V-0","Contact Finish Thickness - Post":"100.0µin (2.54µm)","Contact Finish Thickness - Mating":"30.0µin (0.76µm)"}},"commercial":{"minOrderQty":null,"leadTime":null,"referencePrice":"$0.3314","priceTiers":null},"links":{"datasheetUrl":"https://cdn.icsourcedirect.com/2c51612d5c5d93a7a4c8e7d3517b73c9.pdf","sourceUrl":null,"alternativesUrl":"https://icsourcedirect.com/api/mcp/products/5-146285-4/alternatives.json"},"ai":{"faq":[{"question":"Where can I buy 5-146285-4 and what is the lead time?","answer":"5-146285-4 is an active part from TE Connectivity."},{"question":"What is the mating connector for 5-146285-4?","answer":"Common mates include AMPMODU Mod II female socket housings and crimp-socket assemblies, or IDC receptacles with the same pitch.
