The 641970-1 is a 6-position, 3-row shrouded header from TE's Universal MATE-N-LOK series, designed to carry 12 A per circuit at 600 VAC on a 6.35 mm pitch.
12 A per circuit at 600 VAC is a genuine power rating, not a signal-level figure. The 6.35 mm pitch gives you room to route heavier traces on the PCB without crowding.
This header mates with the matching Universal MATE-N-LOK receptacle housing and crimp terminals. Confirm the circuit count and row configuration — the 3-row 6-position layout is specific.
RoHS compliance is standard for TE Universal MATE-N-LOK headers. Verify the specific RoHS certificate on the product drawing or contact TE for the latest declaration.
