IPL1-116-01-STL-D-K

Headers, Male Pins Overview

The Samtec IPL1-116-01-STL-D-K is a .100" (2.54mm) pitch Mini Mate® discrete wire header connector featuring 32 positions across two rows. It utilizes a through-hole termination style with a locking clip mechanism for secure board attachment. The contacts are constructed from phosphor bronze, offering female pin configurations designed for reliable mating cycles. The insulator is made of liquid crystal polymer (LCP), providing high thermal stability and mechanical strength. This component supports vertical mounting on printed circuit boards.

Headers, Male Pins Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix to confirm the presence of the locking clip and polarization features. Ensure the selected variant matches the required contact plating and insulation material specifications for the target operating environment. Cross-reference the official datasheet to confirm compatibility with mating socket components and PCB footprint requirements before finalizing procurement orders.

Headers, Male Pins Selection Notes

Select this connector when a robust, shrouded header with integrated locking mechanisms is required for .100" pitch applications. Consider the Mini Mate® series benefits for high-density discrete wire connections. Evaluate the through-hole termination against surface mount alternatives based on PCB manufacturing capabilities and mechanical stress requirements in the final assembly.

Headers, Male Pins Part Context

This part belongs to Samtec's Mini Mate® IPL1 series, which specializes in .100" pitch discrete wire headers. The series offers various termination styles and contact counts to support diverse board-to-wire connectivity needs.
