Product details

Obsolete — Sourced to Order, No Successor

Availability is confirmed at quote time against an RFQ.

16 Circuits, Dual-Row, 0.100" Pitch — Board Fit

Surface-mount termination with pick-and-place features means the part is designed for automated reflow assembly — no through-hole staking or hand-soldering needed.

Tin-Plated Forked Contacts — Signal Duty

Tin is cost-effective for moderate-cycle applications — expect a few hundred mates before fretting becomes a concern. The forked contact geometry provides a wiping action during insertion.

Micro-MaTch Series — Mating Half

This receptacle mates with the Micro-MaTch series pin headers. The housing is glass-filled PA46 (Nylon 4/6), black, rated UL94 V-0 for flame resistance inside equipment enclosures.
