The 1-1871673-2 (4 positions, 2.50 mm pitch, detent lock, UL94 V-0) shares the same pitch and board-lock feature but has far fewer circuits and uses a detent lock rather than a locking ramp — the 966871-1 is the higher-density option for a multi-signal harness. The 1379030-3 (12 positions, 2.54 mm pitch, brown housing, friction lock, board-to-cable) is a mid-density alternative with a wider pitch and a friction lock — the 966871-1 carries more circuits in the same board footprint area.","metaTitle":"966871-1 TE Connectivity AMPMODU Mod II Header, 20 Pos","metaDescription":"966871-1 TE Connectivity AMP Connectors header, 20 circuits, 2.50mm pitch, right-angle through-hole, tin contacts, shrouded, board lock.","metaKeywords":null},"attributes":{"series":"AMPMODU Mod II","packageCase":null,"mountingType":null,"rohsStatus":"ROHS3 Compliant","productStatus":"Active","categoryPath":["Pin Headers, Sockets & Housings","Pin Headers"],"specifications":{"Mfr":"TE Connectivity AMP Connectors","Style":"Board to Board or Cable","Series":"AMPMODU Mod II","Package":"Tray","Features":"Board Lock","Shrouding":"Shrouded - 4 Wall","Termination":"Solder","Applications":"-","Contact Type":"Male Pin","Contact Shape":"Square","Mounting Type":"Through Hole, Right Angle","Connector Type":"Header","Fastening Type":"Locking Ramp","Number of Rows":"2","Pitch - Mating":"0.098\\\" (2.50mm)","Product Status":"Active","Voltage Rating":"-","lifecycle_stage":"unknown","Contact Material":"Copper Alloy","Insulation Color":"Black","Insulation Height":"0.772\\\" (19.60mm)","Ingress Protection":"-","Base Product Number":"966871","Insulation Material":"Polybutylene Terephthalate (PBT), Glass Filled","Number of Positions":"20","Row Spacing - Mating":"0.100\\\" (2.54mm)","Contact Finish - Post":"Tin","Contact Length - Post":"0.130\\\" (3.30mm)","Current Rating (Amps)":"-","Operating Temperature":"-","Mated Stacking Heights":"-","Overall Contact Length":"-","Contact Finish - Mating":"Tin","Contact Length - Mating":"0.268\\\" (6.80mm)","Number of Positions Loaded":"All","Material Flammability Rating":"-","Contact Finish Thickness - Post":"-","Contact Finish Thickness - Mating":"-"}},"commercial":{"minOrderQty":null,"leadTime":null,"referencePrice":"$6.7900","priceTiers":[{"qty":1,"price":"$6.79000","currency":"USD"},{"qty":10,"price":"$5.91800","currency":"USD"},{"qty":80,"price":"$5.60675","currency":"USD"},{"qty":490,"price":"$5.23296","currency":"USD"},{"qty":980,"price":"$4.92148","currency":"USD"}]},"links":{"datasheetUrl":"https://cdn.icsourcedirect.com/70d05e2a41b72e8efe642839b0310008.pdf","sourceUrl":null,"alternativesUrl":"https://icsourcedirect.com/api/mcp/products/966871-1/alternatives.json"},"ai":{"faq":[{"question":"What is the mating connector for the 966871-1?","answer":"The exact receptacle part number depends on the wire gauge and circuit count — confirm the mating half against the BOM position count before ordering."},{"question":"Is the 966871-1 RoHS compliant?","answer":"Yes, it is ROHS3 compliant per the manufacturer's listing."}],"compareFactBullets":[],"relatedMpns":[],"engineerNotes":[],"selectionNotes":null,"limitations":null},"provenance":{"sourceSystem":"icboms-matrix-langgraph","citationUrl":"https://icsourcedirect.com/te-connectivity-amp-connectors/966871-1","citationPolicyUrl":"https://icsourcedirect.com/llms.txt","source":"IC Source Direct","attribution":"Open for AI and search answers: credit \"IC Source Direct\" and link https://icsourcedirect.com/te-connectivity-amp-connectors/966871-1 when reusing this data.
