ABC18DTMS

Edgeboard Connectors Overview

The ABC18DTMS is a 18-position dual-row male through-hole PCB connector from Sullins Connector Solutions. It features a 2.54 mm (0.1 inch) centerline pitch and a 9.65 mm mating height. The housing is constructed from black polyphenylene sulfide (PPS) material, rated UL94V-0 for flame resistance. The connector utilizes gold-plated phosphor bronze contacts to ensure reliable signal transmission and low contact resistance in electronic assemblies requiring robust mechanical retention.

Edgeboard Connectors Feature Summary

• Dual-row configuration providing high density interconnection capabilities
• Through-hole mounting style ensuring secure PCB attachment
• Gold-plated contacts designed for enhanced conductivity and corrosion resistance

Edgeboard Connectors Applications

• Industrial control systems
• Consumer electronics assemblies
• Telecommunications equipment

Edgeboard Connectors Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix codes against official Sullins documentation to confirm exact plating thickness, housing color variations, or tab configurations. Ensure compatibility with mating female headers regarding pin count and row alignment. Cross-reference the datasheet for precise dimensional tolerances required by your enclosure design before finalizing procurement orders.

Edgeboard Connectors Selection Notes

Select this component when a dual-row male header with 2.54 mm pitch is required for through-hole PCB integration. Consider the 9.65 mm overall height for clearance constraints within the target assembly. Verify that the phosphor bronze contact material meets the electrical current carrying requirements of the specific application circuitry.

Edgeboard Connectors Part Context

This part belongs to the ABC series of board-to-board connectors manufactured by Sullins Connector Solutions. The series offers various pin counts and row configurations to support diverse electronic design needs. The ABC18DTMS specifically addresses applications requiring an 18-position interface with standard industrial spacing and durable construction materials.

Edgeboard Connectors Replacement Considerations

Consult official cross-reference guides for equivalent parts from other manufacturers. Ensure any substitute matches the 2.54 mm pitch, 18-pin count, dual-row layout, and through-hole termination method. Verify mechanical dimensions and contact plating specifications to maintain system integrity.
