HLT-0303-T-R

Headers, Male Pins Overview

The HLT-0303-T-R is a .100 inch (2.54 mm) pitch screw machine terminal array manufactured by Samtec Inc. This component features a single row of three positions designed for through-hole mounting on printed circuit boards. The connector utilizes screw machine terminals with gold plating to ensure reliable signal transmission and low contact resistance. It is classified as a header with male pins, suitable for board-to-board applications requiring robust mechanical stability.

Headers, Male Pins Feature Summary

• Utilizes screw machine terminal technology for high durability and precise alignment
• Features gold-plated contacts to maintain consistent electrical performance over time
• Designed for through-hole installation ensuring secure PCB attachment

Headers, Male Pins Applications

• Board-to-board interconnects in electronic assemblies
• General purpose signal routing in industrial equipment
• Prototyping and development board connections

Headers, Male Pins Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffixes to confirm pin count, row configuration, and termination style. Ensure compatibility with mating connectors within the HLT series or compatible socket arrays. Check RoHS compliance status and environmental certifications required for your specific application region before finalizing procurement orders.

Headers, Male Pins Selection Notes

Select this part when a single-row, three-position header is required for .100 inch pitch systems. Consider the mechanical strength of screw machine terminals compared to stamped alternatives. Verify that the through-hole footprint matches your PCB design constraints and that the current rating meets the operational requirements of the connected circuitry.

Headers, Male Pins Part Context

This component belongs to the HLT series of .100 inch screw machine terminal arrays from Samtec. The series offers various configurations including different pin counts and row numbers. The HLT-0303-T-R specifically denotes a single row with three positions, providing a compact solution for dense interconnect needs while maintaining the reliability associated with Samtec's screw machine manufacturing process.

Headers, Male Pins Replacement Considerations

Compatible substitutes include other HLT series headers with matching pitch and position counts such as HLT-0303-G-T. Ensure any replacement maintains the same .100 inch spacing and through-hole termination method to preserve mechanical fit and electrical continuity without redesigning the PCB footprint.
