18-Position Mini CT Receptacle Housing
The TE Connectivity 1-353908-8 is an 18-position receptacle housing from the Mini CT series, designed for wire-to-board and wire-to-wire interconnects in compact consumer and industrial equipment. The housing accepts female crimp socket terminals, so you build the harness by inserting pre-crimped wires into the cavities — no soldering on the wire side.
What Fits and What Doesn't
18 vs 17 Positions
The 1-353908-8 carries 18 circuits against the 17 of the 1-353908-7 at the same 1.50 mm pitch. That one extra position is the entire difference — the housing body length grows by one cavity pitch, but the mating header and terminal family are identical. Choose the position count that matches your circuit count exactly; there's no electrical derating difference between the two.
