Contact system and board fit
The 0436501101 is the 11-circuit single-row member of Molex's Micro-Fit 3.0 43650 header family, configured as a board-to-cable/wire interconnect. Mating contacts are gold-plated (15.0µin / 0.38µm) on brass square pins; the through-hole right-angle orientation places the mating face parallel to the PCB, and the shrouded 4-wall housing with locking ramp provides keyed alignment and vibration-resistant retention.
Selection notes
The 3.00 mm pitch and single-row layout define the board footprint and routing density; the gold mating contact finish supports repeated mating cycles in field-service or medical equipment applications. Board locks on the through-hole tails provide SMT-style retention during wave solder and resist shear from cable strain, and the UL94 V-0 LCP housing suits equipment inside enclosures requiring a flame rating.
