Mini50 2.00mm Receptacle Housing — 12-Circuit Wire-to-Board Connector
It uses a 0.079" (2.00mm) pitch across two rows, which keeps the board footprint tight while still allowing enough creepage for automotive-grade 12V and 48V signal circuits. The glass-filled PBT insulation handles exposure to engine-compartment fluids and humidity, and the -40°C to 100°C operating range covers underhood and outdoor cabinet duty without derating.
The 2.00mm pitch is the critical board-layout parameter: it matches the Mini50 header footprint exactly, so the receptacle housing aligns with the header pins without offset. The 12-circuit count is the BOM line match — verify the harness circuit count against the mating header position count before committing. The two-row arrangement means the 12 positions are split 6 per row, which keeps the connector width narrower than a single-row 12-position housing at the same pitch. Compared to the 8-circuit sibling in the same Mini50 206523 series, the 12-circuit version adds four positions at the same 2.00mm pitch — the extra circuits fit within the same connector width by adding length, not widening the footprint.
Contact Selection and Termination
This housing accepts Mini50 female socket crimp terminals (contact type) — the correct terminal part number is the Molex 560061 (or equivalent Mini50 female terminal) for 20-24 AWG wire. The crimp termination gives a gas-tight connection when properly tooled, and the housing's terminal retention features hold the contact in place after insertion. No secondary TPA (terminal position assurance) is listed on this housing, so the primary latch alone secures the contact — verify the terminal fully seats and locks during assembly.
