Board Layout and Routing for the 72-Position Breakaway
The 9-146250-0-36: This is a 72-position, dual-row, unshrouded breakaway header from the AMPMODU Mod II series. The breakaway design means the 72-position strip can be snapped to shorter lengths — useful when a BOM calls for a non-standard circuit count and a single part number covers multiple positions.
Current Rating and Contact Plating Trade-Offs
Rated 3 A per contact with tin-on-tin plating.
As an unshrouded header with push-pull fastening, this part mates with AMPMODU Mod II female socket housings that have a corresponding 0.100" pitch and dual-row layout. The square male pins accept standard crimp or IDC receptacles from the same series. No shroud means the mating housing provides all polarization and alignment — verify the keying feature on the receptacle side.
