AW140-EG-G11C2

Overview

The AW140-EG-G11C2 is a board-to-board connector header from the AW140 series, manufactured by ASSMANN WSW Components. It features 11 contacts arranged in a single row with a 2.54 mm (0.1 inch) pitch. The component utilizes male pins with gold flash plating on brass contacts for reliable signal transmission. Designed for through-hole mounting, it employs solder terminals and includes locking mechanisms to secure the connection. The housing is constructed from polybutylene terephthalate (PBT), supporting operating temperatures between -40°C and +105°C.

Feature Summary

• Single-row male pin header configuration for direct board-to-board interconnection
• Gold flash plated brass contacts ensure corrosion resistance and stable conductivity
• Integrated locking mechanism provides mechanical stability during mating cycles
• Through-hole solder termination facilitates robust PCB attachment

Applications

• Automotive body electronics and lighting systems
• Communications equipment signal routing
• Datacom module interconnects
• Personal electronics internal connections

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix against the manufacturer's official datasheet to confirm contact count, pin length, and plating specifications. Ensure the selected variant matches the required current rating and voltage isolation standards for the target application environment. Cross-reference the part number with authorized distributors to confirm authenticity and traceability of the components.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a straight, single-row male header with locking features is required for 2.54 mm pitch applications. Consider the PBT housing material for thermal stability within the specified temperature range. Evaluate the through-hole mounting style against available PCB space and assembly constraints. Confirm that the 11-position configuration aligns with the circuit design requirements.
