It mates with matching socket housings or receptacles for board-to-board or cable connections.
Current rating and thermal limits
The 2.54mm pitch and unshrouded design mean each pin dissipates heat into the board trace — the 3 A ceiling is conservative for a gold-plated interface in still air. For continuous operation near 105°C, derate per the AMPMODU Mod II derating curve.
Housing material and flammability
The material withstands reflow soldering temperatures without distortion.
