AW140-EG-G32A

Overview

The AW140-EG-G32A is a single-row pin header from the ASSMANN WSW AW140 series, designed for board-to-board connections. It features 32 contacts with a 2.54 mm pitch and operates at 250V. The connector utilizes gold-plated male pins housed in a PBT shell, supporting through-hole mounting. Rated for 3A current, it functions within a temperature range of -40°C to 105°C.

Feature Summary

• Straight orientation facilitates direct vertical board stacking
• Gold contact finish ensures reliable signal transmission
• Unshrouded design allows for compact integration

Applications

• Automotive body electronics and lighting systems
• Communications equipment modules
• Datacom interconnects
• Personal electronic devices

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific contact count matches the required circuit design, as the model suffix indicates 32 positions. Confirm that the unshrouded header configuration aligns with mating socket requirements. Ensure the through-hole termination method is compatible with the target PCB manufacturing process and soldering profile specifications.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a straight, unshrouded header is required for high-density applications. The 2.54 mm pitch suits standard board layouts. Gold plating provides durability for frequent mating cycles. Verify that the 3A rating meets the electrical load requirements of the specific application circuitry before finalizing the design.

Part Context

This part belongs to the AW140 series of straight through-hole pin headers. The series offers various contact counts and configurations for board-to-board connectivity. The AW140-EG-G32A specifically provides a 32-position solution with gold contacts, distinguishing it from tin-plated or shrouded variants within the broader product family.

Replacement Considerations

AW140-EG-G36A serves as a comparable alternative within the same series, offering identical mechanical and electrical characteristics but with 36 contacts instead of 32.
