AW 110/16-T

Headers, Male Pins Overview

The AW 110/16-T is a male pin header connector manufactured by Assmann WSW Components. It features 16 positions with a 2.54 mm (0.100 inch) pitch, arranged in a single row. The connector utilizes a through-hole termination method for secure board mounting. The contacts are constructed from brass and finished with a tin plating to ensure reliable conductivity and corrosion resistance. The housing is made of Polybutylene Terephthalate (PBT) reinforced with glass fiber, providing structural integrity and flame retardancy rated at UL94 V-0. The component operates within a temperature range of -40°C to 105°C.

Headers, Male Pins Feature Summary

• Constructed with glass-filled PBT insulation material for enhanced mechanical strength and thermal stability.
• Features tin-plated brass contacts designed for durable signal transmission and oxidation resistance.
• Includes UL94 V-0 flammability rating for improved safety compliance in electronic assemblies.

Headers, Male Pins Applications

• General-purpose printed circuit board interconnections
• Low-voltage signal routing in consumer electronics
• Industrial control panel wiring harnesses

Headers, Male Pins Procurement Notes

Verify the specific contact plating thickness and insulation material grade against the official manufacturer datasheet prior to integration. Confirm that the tin-plated finish meets the required solderability standards for the intended manufacturing process. Ensure the operating temperature range aligns with the environmental conditions of the final application to prevent performance degradation or failure during service life.

Headers, Male Pins Selection Notes

Select this component when a single-row, through-hole male header is required for low-current applications. The 2.54 mm pitch is standard for DIP-compatible layouts. Consider the UL94 V-0 rating if fire safety regulations apply. Verify that the 16-position count matches the circuit design requirements. Evaluate the tin plating suitability against gold alternatives if high-cycle mating is not needed but cost efficiency is prioritized.

Headers, Male Pins Part Context

This part belongs to the Assmann WSW header series, focusing on standard pitch interconnect solutions. It serves as a fundamental passive connection element in electronic assemblies, bridging PCB traces to external cables or secondary boards. Unlike active components, it provides no signal processing, relying solely on physical conductivity and mechanical retention for system functionality.

Headers, Male Pins Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes must match the 16-position count, 2.54 mm pitch, and through-hole mounting style. Verify compatibility regarding contact material (brass) and plating (tin). Insulation material properties, specifically the UL94 V-0 rating and glass-filled PBT composition, should be equivalent to maintain thermal and mechanical performance standards.
