AW140-EG-Z13C1

Overview

The AW140-EG-Z13C1 is a board-to-board connector header manufactured by Assmann WSW Components. It features a single row of 13 male contacts with a 2.54 mm pitch. The component is designed for through-hole mounting and operates at a voltage rating of 250V. The housing is constructed from polybutylene terephthalate (PBT), providing durability for electronic assemblies.

Feature Summary

• Single row straight header configuration for vertical board connections
• Through-hole mounting style ensuring secure PCB attachment
• Polybutylene terephthalate housing material for structural integrity

Applications

• Automotive body electronics and lighting systems
• Communications equipment interconnections
• Datacom module assembly
• Personal electronics devices

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix codes on the datasheet to confirm contact plating and housing color variations. Ensure the selected variant matches the required current rating and temperature specifications for the target application environment before finalizing procurement orders.

Selection Notes

Select this model when a 13-position, 2.54mm pitch header is required for direct board stacking or cable-to-board interfaces. Confirm that the through-hole footprint aligns with the PCB design rules and that the 250V rating meets the circuit requirements.

Part Context

This part belongs to the AW140 series of standard board connectors. The series offers various pin counts and configurations to support diverse connectivity needs in consumer and industrial electronics, maintaining consistent mechanical dimensions across the family.

Replacement Considerations

Compatible substitutes include other 13-position, 2.54mm pitch headers from manufacturers such as Samtec or Molex, provided they match the straight orientation and through-hole mounting style.
