HTSW-104-25-L-S

Headers, Male Pins Overview

The HTSW-104-25-L-S is a vertical board-to-board or cable header manufactured by Samtec Inc. It features a single row with four positions and a 0.100 inch (2.54 mm) pitch. The connector utilizes phosphor bronze contacts with a gold flash finish on the mating interface and tin plating on the tail. Designed for through-hole solder termination, it employs a natural liquid crystal polymer (LCP) insulator rated UL94 V-0. The unit operates within a temperature range of -55°C to 125°C and includes push-pull locking mechanisms.
