The 6 A per-contact rating and 125 V working voltage align with standard DB-9 signal duty: RS-232, serial, instrumentation links, and control lines where the total current per pin stays under the derating curve. The steel shell with tin plating and the integral ground strap provide the EMI containment and shield termination expected of a D-Sub in an industrial or telecom enclosure. The housing/shell flange accepts 4-40 jackscrews for a positive mechanical lock to the mating plug — critical in high-vibration environments where the connector pair must not separate under cable strain. ## 9-Position Layout and PCB Fit The 9 positions are arranged in two rows in the standard DE (E) shell size — the smallest D-Sub footprint, which keeps the board real estate tight. Compared to the 9-position bulk-packaged sibling 8-1437045-3, the 5745781-3 ships in a tray — the same connector electrically, but the tray packaging suits automated pick-and-place lines that feed from a standard tray stack, while bulk packs are more common for hand-load or low-volume rework. For a BOM line, the choice between tray and bulk is a line-feeding decision, not a functional one. The solder termination requires the PCB to be pre-drilled with the right-angle footprint — the through-hole tails are 0.040\" diameter, typical for a DB-9 solder tail. No crimp tool or die is needed; the contacts are not removable, so the termination is one-shot per board assembly.","metaTitle":"TE 5745781-3 AMPLIMITE HD-20 D-Sub Receptacle","metaDescription":"TE Connectivity 5745781-3 AMPLIMITE HD-20 D-Sub receptacle, 9 positions, right-angle solder, gold flash contacts, rated 6A/125V, UL94 V-0.","metaKeywords":null},"attributes":{"series":"AMPLIMITE HD-20","packageCase":null,"mountingType":null,"rohsStatus":"RoHS Compliant","productStatus":"Active","categoryPath":["D-Sub & D-Shaped Connectors","D-Sub Cable Assemblies"],"specifications":{"Mfr":"TE Connectivity AMP Connectors","Color":"Black","Series":"AMPLIMITE HD-20","Package":"Tray","Features":"Ground Strap","Wire Gauge":"-","Termination":"Solder","Contact Form":"-","Contact Type":"Signal","Mounting Type":"Through Hole, Right Angle","Connector Type":"Receptacle, Female Sockets","Contact Finish":"Gold","Flange Feature":"Housing/Shell (4-40)","Number of Rows":"2","Product Status":"Active","Voltage Rating":"125V","Backset Spacing":"0.318\\\" (8.08mm)","Connector Style":"D-Sub","lifecycle_stage":"unknown","Contact Material":"Phosphor Bronze","Ingress Protection":"-","Base Product Number":"5745781","Dielectric Material":"Thermoplastic","Number of Positions":"9","Current Rating (Amps)":"6A","Operating Temperature":"-55°C ~ 105°C","Shell Material, Finish":"Steel, Tin Plated","Contact Finish Thickness":"Flash","Material Flammability Rating":"UL94 V-0","Shell Size, Connector Layout":"1 (DE, E)"}},"commercial":{"minOrderQty":null,"leadTime":null,"referencePrice":"$3.6500","priceTiers":[{"qty":1,"price":"$3.65000","currency":"USD"},{"qty":10,"price":"$3.24900","currency":"USD"},{"qty":25,"price":"$3.23200","currency":"USD"},{"qty":130,"price":"$2.88392","currency":"USD"},{"qty":260,"price":"$2.86731","currency":"USD"},{"qty":520,"price":"$2.65187","currency":"USD"},{"qty":1040,"price":"$2.37010","currency":"USD"}]},"links":{"datasheetUrl":"https://cdn.icsourcedirect.com/8fd10f2989e156a39be9199ad805adec.pdf","sourceUrl":null,"alternativesUrl":"https://icsourcedirect.com/api/mcp/products/5745781-3/alternatives.json"},"ai":{"faq":[{"question":"What is the pinout of TE Connectivity 5745781-3?","answer":"The 5745781-3 is a standard DE-9 D-Sub receptacle with 9 positions in two rows.
