MTLW-106-22-S-D-480

Headers, Male Pins Overview

The MTLW-106-22-S-D-480 is a board stacking connector manufactured by Samtec Inc. It features 12 contacts arranged in two rows of male pins with a 2.54 mm pitch. The connector utilizes straight, through-hole solder terminals for vertical mounting. Contact surfaces are gold-plated over nickel to ensure reliable electrical performance. Designed as a low-profile header, it supports flexible board stacking applications requiring precise alignment and secure mechanical connection between circuit boards.

Headers, Male Pins Feature Summary

• Low-profile design for space-constrained vertical board stacking
• Flexible stacking capability allowing variable pin heights
• Gold-over-nickel contact plating for corrosion resistance
• Straight through-hole termination for secure PCB mounting

Headers, Male Pins Applications

• Vertical interconnection between stacked printed circuit boards
• High-density electronic assembly requiring low profile headers
• Board-to-board signal transmission in compact devices

Headers, Male Pins Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix matches the required pin height and contact configuration. Confirm RoHS compliance status and lead time requirements with the authorized distributor or manufacturer prior to order placement. Ensure the selected variant aligns with the mechanical stack-up dimensions of the target application.

Headers, Male Pins Selection Notes

Select this component when a low-profile, flexible board stacking header is required. The 2.54 mm pitch suits standard density layouts. Verify that the straight terminal style fits the available vertical clearance. Consider the gold plating thickness for long-term reliability in the operating environment.

Headers, Male Pins Part Context

This part belongs to the MTLW series of flexible board stacking headers from Samtec. These connectors are characterized by their ability to accommodate slight misalignments during assembly. The series offers various pin heights and contact counts to support diverse stacking configurations in modern electronics manufacturing.

Headers, Male Pins Replacement Considerations

Compatible substitutes include other Samtec MTLW variants with matching 12-pin, double-row configurations. Cross-model replacements must maintain the 2.54 mm pitch and male pin gender. Verify mechanical footprint compatibility before substituting.
