Product details

Board Fit and Routing — 2.00 mm Pitch, 16 Positions, Right-Angle

The 2842163-8: Each contact is rated 2 A at 125 VAC/DC, with the current ceiling limited by the 15.0 µinch gold mating finish and the 78.7 µinch tin post finish. Alignment relies on the mating receptacle's own chamfer or the board's mechanical registration.

No official second source or cross-reference is listed; the TE AMPMODU series is the sole supply chain.

Mating and Termination Compatibility

The square pin profile (0.64 mm typical for 2 mm pitch) provides good solder fillet formation.
