The 3-794632-6 is a 6-position, 2-row vertical header from the TE Micro MATE-N-LOK series, on a 3.00mm pitch. It is a board-to-cable/wire style connector, meaning it terminates on the PCB and mates with a corresponding receptacle on the wire harness. The 4-wall shrouding protects the male pins during handling and mating, and the locking ramp provides a positive retention against vibration — a common requirement in industrial and automotive interior applications. Rated for 250V and a current that varies by wire gauge, this header is suited for signal and moderate power distribution within an enclosure.
Board footprint and termination
Through-hole mounting with both press-fit and solder termination options gives the board layout engineer flexibility: press-fit for a solderless backplane assembly, or solder for a conventional wave-solder process. The contact length after the board is 0.125" (3.18mm). The 3.00mm pitch and 0.118" row spacing dictate a PCB footprint with staggered or inline holes at that spacing. The square male pins accept standard Micro MATE-N-LOK crimp receptacles.
