Frequently asked questions
What is the pinout of 5-146257-6?
It is a dual-row, 12-position header with all positions loaded. The unshrouded design allows mating with any 0.025" square-post receptacle.
What is the closest pin-compatible alternative to 5-146257-6 in the AMPMODU Mod II family?
Within the same series, the main alternative is a different position count or plating option. For a 12-position, dual-row, gold-plated header, this exact order code is the one specified. TE's base number 146257 covers multiple breakaway variants; verify the position count and contact finish against the BOM before substituting.
