Tin is the workhorse finish for signal-level current in controlled indoor environments — it provides adequate corrosion resistance and a lower cost than gold.
16-Circuit Single-Row Layout for Narrow Board Traces
With all 16 positions loaded in a single row, this header occupies minimal board width — about 1.6" (40.6 mm) along the row. The single-row format simplifies routing for signal lines that don't need the density of a dual-row header. In applications subject to vibration, consider a receptacle with a positive lock or add a secondary retention method.
The base product number is 103329; the -16 suffix indicates the 16-position variant. Bulk packaging is standard, which means the parts ship in tubes or bags — not tape-and-reel, so plan for manual placement or a tube feeder on the assembly line.
Mating and Compliance Notes
This header mates with AMPMODU Mod II receptacles that accept 0.025" square posts on 0.100" pitch — common choices include the 5-534206 series IDC sockets and the 1-480700 series crimp receptacles.
