9-146261-0-01

Headers, Male Pins Overview

The 9-146261-0-01 is a vertical header connector from the AMPMODU Mod II series, manufactured by TE Connectivity AMP Connectors. It features a 2.54mm (0.100 inch) pitch and contains 38 positions arranged in a dual row configuration. The connector utilizes male pin contacts with a gold plating finish on the mating interface to ensure reliable signal transmission. Designed for through-hole mounting, it employs a push-pull locking mechanism for secure attachment. The housing is constructed from black liquid crystal polymer (LCP), rated UL94 V-0 for flammability, and supports an operating temperature range of -65°C to 105°C.

Headers, Male Pins Feature Summary

• Gold-plated male pin contacts for enhanced conductivity and corrosion resistance
• Push-pull locking system ensures secure mechanical retention
• Black LCP insulation housing with UL94 V-0 flammability rating

Headers, Male Pins Applications

• Industrial control systems requiring robust interconnects
• Automotive electronics assemblies
• Telecommunications equipment backplanes
• General-purpose printed circuit board stacking

Headers, Male Pins Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix code to confirm the exact pin count and orientation, as the base series includes various position variants. Ensure compatibility with mating receptacles from the same AMPMODU Mod II family. Check RoHS compliance status against current regulatory requirements for the target market. Confirm that the through-hole termination method aligns with the assembly process capabilities. Validate the lead time availability directly with authorized distributors prior to finalizing production schedules.

Headers, Male Pins Selection Notes

Select this component when a high-density, vertically oriented header is required for critical signal paths. The gold contact finish makes it suitable for environments where low contact resistance is essential. Consider the physical height constraints of the assembly, as the vertical design impacts board clearance. Evaluate the thermal management needs, given the LCP material properties and operating temperature limits. Ensure the mating connector provides a matching push-pull locking mechanism for consistent assembly quality.

Headers, Male Pins Part Context

This part belongs to the AMPMODU Mod II series, a widely used rectangular connector system known for its reliability in harsh environments. The series offers various configurations including headers, receptacles, and terminal blocks. The 9-146261-0-01 specifically represents a 38-position variant within this modular ecosystem, designed to integrate seamlessly with other components sharing the same 2.54mm pitch and locking architecture.

Headers, Male Pins Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include other 38-position vertical headers with identical 2.54mm pitch and gold-plated contacts from compatible families. Verify mechanical dimensions and locking mechanisms before substitution. Cross-reference with TE Connectivity's official replacement guides for equivalent performance characteristics.
