Board-fit specs for the 30-position SMT receptacle
The 8-1734516-0: This is a 30-position, dual-row female socket header on 2.00mm pitch — the footprint takes 30 pads in two rows spaced 2.00mm apart. The 0.079" pitch is standard for AMPMODU board-to-board stacks; the 0.175" (4.45mm) insulation height leaves clearance for mid-board routing under the connector body. Rated 1A per contact at 250VAC — the current limit is conservative for the 30µinch gold mating surface.
Mating half and board-stack height
This receptacle mates with a 2.00mm pitch AMPMODU header (male pin strip) in a push-pull fastening style — no latch, no lock. The mated stack height depends on the header's post length; typical AMPMODU 2.00mm headers give a 5mm to 8mm board-to-board separation. Confirm the header pin height against your z-height budget before layout.
