A24201-012

Headers, Male Pins Overview

The Omnetics A24201-012 is a Micro Strip series rectangular connector plug designed for surface mount, right-angle installation. It features 12 positions with a 0.050-inch (1.27mm) contact spacing and utilizes pin contacts. The component employs a latch-type mounting mechanism and supports wire termination via solder cup connections. Contact surfaces are gold-plated to ensure reliable electrical performance.

Headers, Male Pins Feature Summary

• Surface mount right-angle configuration for compact PCB integration
• Latch-style mounting mechanism for secure panel or cable attachment
• Gold-plated pin contacts for enhanced conductivity and corrosion resistance

Headers, Male Pins Applications

• High-density electronic interconnects requiring right-angle routing
• Board-to-cable connections in space-constrained environments
• Industrial control systems utilizing Micro Strip series components

Headers, Male Pins Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix codes against official Omnetics documentation to confirm exact termination style and housing material. Ensure compatibility with mating receptacles within the same Micro Strip family. Confirm RoHS compliance status as it varies by manufacturing batch and specific variant designation.

Headers, Male Pins Selection Notes

Select this model when a right-angle surface mount plug with latching capability is required. Evaluate the 0.050-inch pitch against available board space. Consider the solder cup termination method for manual or wave soldering processes. Verify that the latch mechanism aligns with the assembly constraints of the target enclosure.

Headers, Male Pins Part Context

This component belongs to the Micro Strip series, which offers high-density interconnect solutions. It complements matching receptacles and cable assemblies within the same product line. The design focuses on reliability in demanding applications through robust mechanical locking and precise contact alignment.

Headers, Male Pins Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include other Omnetics Micro Strip plugs with identical 12-position configurations and right-angle surface mount footprints. Verify that any alternative part maintains the same latch mounting type and 0.050-inch pitch to ensure mechanical and electrical compatibility.
