Housing Only — Plan the Full BOM
The TE Connectivity 1-179554-3 is a 6-position, 2-row plug housing from the Dynamic D-3200 series, on a 0.200" (5.08mm) pitch with a 0.300" (7.62mm) row spacing.
This plug housing accepts male pin contacts (crimp termination) and mates with a Dynamic D-3200 series receptacle header — typically the 1-2069882-6 or similar 6-position receptacle housing that uses female socket contacts. The polarizing key ensures the plug and receptacle align correctly during assembly. For the crimp contacts, TE offers several options in the Dynamic D-3000/D-3200 contact family; the exact wire range (typically 20-16 AWG for power contacts) should be confirmed against the contact datasheet. The housing itself does not carry a current rating — that is determined by the selected contact and wire gauge.
