AW140-EG-G29F

Overview

The AW140-EG-G29F is a single-row male header connector from the AW140 series, manufactured by Assmann WSW Components. It features 29 contacts with a 2.54 mm (0.1 inch) pitch and is designed for board-to-board connections. The component utilizes gold-plated brass contacts and a polybutylene terephthalate housing. Rated for 3A current and 250V voltage, it supports solder terminals for through-hole mounting. The operating temperature range spans from -40°C to 105°C.

Feature Summary

• Single-row male configuration for direct board-to-board interconnection
• Gold-plated brass contacts ensure reliable signal transmission
• Polybutylene terephthalate housing provides structural stability

Applications

• Automotive body electronics and lighting systems
• Communications equipment modules
• Datacom module interfaces
• Personal electronics assemblies

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific contact count of 29 positions and the straight orientation against the official datasheet before procurement. Confirm that the through-hole solder terminal type matches the target PCB layout requirements. Ensure the polybutylene terephthalate material specification aligns with thermal management needs within the -40°C to 105°C operational range.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a 29-position male header is required for rigid board-to-board applications. The 2.54 mm pitch dictates compatible mating socket spacing. Consider the straight orientation for standard vertical stacking configurations. Verify that the 3A current rating and 250V voltage limits are sufficient for the intended circuit load conditions.

Part Context

This part belongs to the AW140 series of connectors, which are standardized components within the Assmann WSW portfolio. The series focuses on providing reliable interconnect solutions for various electronic assemblies. The AW140-EG-G29F specifically addresses the need for high-density connections in compact electronic designs requiring robust mechanical and electrical performance.

Replacement Considerations

Compatible substitutes include other 29-position, 2.54mm pitch male headers from the same manufacturer or industry equivalents. Ensure replacement parts maintain identical row count, contact plating, and mounting style specifications.
