A24204-048

Headers, Male Pins Overview

The Omnetics A24204-048 is a Micro Strip series rectangular header connector designed for surface mount technology. It features 48 positions arranged in two rows with a 0.050-inch (1.27mm) mating pitch and a 0.100-inch (2.54mm) row spacing. The connector utilizes male pins with gold-plated contacts and a PPS insulator, rated for 3A per contact within a -55°C to 125°C operating range.

Headers, Male Pins Feature Summary

• Surface mount design with latch housing for secure board retention
• Gold-plated beryllium copper contacts for reliable signal transmission
• Polyphenylene sulfide insulation material for thermal stability

Headers, Male Pins Applications

• High-density electronic interconnects
• Board-to-cable or wire connections
• Industrial control systems requiring robust mounting

Headers, Male Pins Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix against the manufacturer datasheet to confirm exact plating thickness and packaging configuration. Ensure compatibility with automated surface mount assembly processes. Confirm that the 48-position layout matches the target PCB footprint requirements before procurement.

Headers, Male Pins Selection Notes

Select this component when a high-pin-count rectangular header is required for surface mount applications. The 0.050-inch pitch allows for dense circuit layouts. Consider the mechanical strength of the latch housing if vibration resistance is critical for the installation environment.

Headers, Male Pins Part Context

This part belongs to the Micro Strip family from Omnetics, which specializes in compact, high-reliability connectors. The A24204-048 serves as a male pin header counterpart to various socket and cable assembly options within the same series, facilitating standardized interconnect solutions.

Headers, Male Pins Replacement Considerations

Compatible mating components include Omnetics A25204-048 and A25202-048 sockets. Verify that substitute parts maintain the same 0.050-inch pitch and 48-position count to ensure mechanical and electrical compatibility.
