12-Position Right-Angle Receptacle for Board-to-Board or Cable Duty
The 8-215460-2: This is a 12-position, dual-row receptacle from TE's Micro-MaTch series, pitched at 2.54mm on both the row and mating spacing. The fork-style contact mates with the matching Micro-MaTch pin header.
Thermal and Mechanical Limits for the Build
The housing is glass-filled PBT rated UL94 V-0, so the connector passes the flame test for equipment inside an enclosure. The contact length after the post is 3.10mm (0.122 inches), which sets the minimum PCB thickness for a reliable solder fillet on the through-hole joint. The insulation height of 5.80mm (0.228 inches) gives clearance above the board for routing traces under the body.
