1612050-8

Overview

The TE Connectivity AMP Connectors part number 1612050-8 is a signal header designed for through-hole mounting. It features a right-angle configuration with 32 positions arranged in two rows. The mating pitch is 0.087 inches (2.20 mm). The contacts are male pins with tin (Sn) plating, suitable for printed circuit board applications. This component belongs to the AMP Signal Header series and is currently classified as an active product.

Feature Summary

• Right-angle through-hole design for compact PCB integration
• Male pin contact type ensuring reliable signal transmission
• Tin-plated terminals for solderability and corrosion resistance

Applications

• Printed Circuit Board interconnects
• Signal routing in electronic assemblies
• Wire-to-board connections

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix, such as -8, which denotes the housing assembly or specific packaging configuration. Confirm that the right-angle orientation matches the mechanical constraints of the target PCB layout. Ensure compatibility with mating connectors utilizing the same 2.20 mm pitch standard.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a low-profile, right-angle male header is required for signal applications. The 2.20 mm pitch accommodates standard trace spacing. Verify that the tin plating meets the environmental and soldering requirements of the assembly process compared to gold-plated alternatives.

Part Context

This part is part of the AMP Signal Header family from TE Connectivity. It serves as a male connector system for board-level interconnections. The design supports high-density signal routing in space-constrained electronic devices requiring robust through-hole termination.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes must match the 32-position count, 2.20 mm pitch, right-angle orientation, and male pin configuration. Verify that alternative headers maintain compatible housing dimensions and locking mechanisms for seamless integration.
