HTSW-120-11-G-D-RA

Headers, Male Pins Overview

The HTSW-120-11-G-D-RA is a right-angle header connector from the Samtec HTSW series, designed for through-hole mounting. It features 20 positions arranged in a dual row (2x10) with a 0.100-inch (2.54 mm) pitch. The contacts are male pins made of phosphor bronze, finished with gold plating on both mating and post sections. The housing is constructed from liquid crystal polymer (LCP), rated UL94 V-0, and operates within a temperature range of -55°C to 125°C. This component utilizes a push-pull fastening mechanism and is RoHS3 compliant.

Headers, Male Pins Feature Summary

• Right-angle through-hole design for board-to-board or cable applications
• Push-pull fastening system for secure connection
• Gold-plated phosphor bronze square contact pins
• High-temperature resistant LCP insulation material

Headers, Male Pins Applications

• High-density electronic assemblies requiring right-angle interconnects
• Industrial control systems operating in elevated temperatures
• Automotive electronics utilizing A-series compatible components

Headers, Male Pins Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix codes against the official datasheet to ensure correct pin count, termination style, and plating thickness. Confirm that the required current rating aligns with the wire gauge specifications provided in the technical documentation. Check for RoHS3 compliance requirements if applicable to your manufacturing standards. Ensure the right-angle orientation matches the PCB layout constraints before ordering.

Headers, Male Pins Selection Notes

Select this part when a right-angle male header with a 2.54 mm pitch is required for high-reliability connections. The HTSW series offers extensive flexibility in terminal length and configuration options compared to standard headers. Consider the push-pull feature for applications requiring robust mechanical retention. Verify that the operating temperature range up to 125°C meets the environmental conditions of the target application.

Headers, Male Pins Part Context

This component belongs to the HTSW (High Temperature Header Strip With PCB Tails) series by Samtec Inc. The series is characterized by its ability to withstand high-temperature processing environments while maintaining electrical integrity. It is part of a broader family of flexible stacking solutions and classic .100 inch pitch connectors designed for diverse industrial and automotive use cases.

Headers, Male Pins Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes may include other Samtec HTSW variants with matching pin counts and pitch. Cross-reference with TSW series parts if high-temperature resistance is not critical. Ensure any replacement maintains the same right-angle orientation and through-hole termination method to fit existing PCB footprints.
