AW 127-48/Z-T

Overview

The AW 127-48/Z-T is a 48-position female header connector from the AW 127 series by Assmann WSW Components. It features a single row of contacts with a 2.54 mm (0.100 inch) pitch, designed for through-hole board-to-board mounting. The connector utilizes gold-plated phosphor bronze contacts and a polybutylene terephthalate (PBT) housing. It supports a maximum voltage of 100V and operates within a temperature range of -40°C to +105°C.

Feature Summary

• Single-row female header configuration for reliable board-to-board interconnection
• Gold-plated phosphor bronze contacts ensure stable electrical performance
• Through-hole termination method provides secure mechanical anchoring
• Polybutylene terephthalate housing offers thermal stability up to 105°C

Applications

• High-density electronic circuit board interconnections
• Industrial control system signal routing
• Consumer electronics internal module linking
• Automotive electronic unit connections

Procurement Notes

Verify that the specific part number AW 127-48/Z-T matches the required 48-position count and 2.54mm pitch before ordering. Confirm that the gold plating specification aligns with your application's conductivity requirements. Ensure the through-hole mounting style is compatible with your PCB fabrication capabilities. Cross-reference the operating temperature range against your environmental conditions.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a 48-pin single-row interface is required. The 2.54mm pitch is standard for general-purpose applications. Consider the gold contact finish for environments requiring corrosion resistance. Verify that the 100V rating meets the circuit's electrical demands. Ensure the PBT material compatibility with soldering processes used in assembly.

Part Context

This component belongs to the AW 127 series of rectangular connectors. The series offers various pin counts while maintaining consistent dimensional and electrical characteristics. The AW 127-48/Z-T represents a mid-range density option within this family, balancing space efficiency with connection capacity.

Replacement Considerations

Compatible substitutes include other 48-position female headers with identical 2.54mm pitch and through-hole mounting. Ensure replacement parts match the gold contact plating and PBT housing material for equivalent thermal and electrical performance.
