163683-8

Overview

The TE Connectivity AMP Connectors part number 163683-8 is a board-to-board receptacle connector. It features a female socket contact type and contains 10 positions, with all positions loaded. This component is designed for vertical or surface-mount integration into electronic assemblies, providing reliable interconnection between circuit boards within the AMPMODU series ecosystem.

Feature Summary

• Board-to-board receptacle design for direct PCB interconnection
• Female socket contact configuration ensures secure mating
• Ten-position layout accommodates compact signal routing requirements

Applications

• High-density electronic assembly interconnects
• Motherboard to daughterboard signal transmission
• Compact industrial control system backplanes

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific termination style and mounting orientation required for your PCB layout against the official datasheet. Confirm that the 10-position footprint matches your design constraints. Ensure compatibility with the corresponding header components within the AMPMODU series for proper mechanical engagement.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a 10-position board-to-board interface is necessary. The female socket configuration is suitable for mating with male headers. Consider the physical profile and mounting requirements to ensure it fits within the available space of the target electronic enclosure without interference.

Part Context

This receptacle belongs to the AMPMODU series, a widely used modular interconnection system by TE Connectivity. The series offers various configurations for different pin counts and spacing requirements. Part 163683-8 specifically addresses applications needing a compact, ten-contact solution for reliable board-level connectivity.

Replacement Considerations

Consult official TE Connectivity documentation for verified substitute part numbers. Do not assume cross-compatibility with other series connectors without verifying pinout and mechanical dimensions.
