MTLW-116-07-L-D-280

Headers, Male Pins Overview

The MTLW-116-07-L-D-280 is a board stacking connector from the Flex Stack MTLW series, manufactured by Samtec Inc. It features a male contact configuration with 32 total contacts arranged in two rows. The connector utilizes a 2.54 mm (0.100 inch) pitch and employs a straight through-hole solder termination method. Designed for low-profile applications, it incorporates variable post height capabilities to accommodate different stack heights.

Headers, Male Pins Feature Summary

• Features a Flex Stack design that allows for modified post height and body position adjustments in precise increments.
• Utilizes .025 inch square posts for reliable mechanical stability and electrical connection within the assembly.

Headers, Male Pins Applications

• Board-to-board interconnections requiring variable stack heights
• Low-profile electronic assemblies needing flexible positioning
• High-density circuit board stacking applications

Headers, Male Pins Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix codes against official Samtec documentation to confirm terminal plating and material specifications. Ensure the selected variant matches the required contact count and row configuration for your design. Cross-reference the datasheet for environmental compliance details such as RoHS status before finalizing procurement orders.

Headers, Male Pins Selection Notes

Select this component when variable post height flexibility is required in a low-profile environment. The double-row configuration supports higher density connections compared to single-row alternatives. Confirm that the through-hole termination method aligns with your PCB manufacturing capabilities and assembly processes.

Headers, Male Pins Part Context

This part belongs to the MTLW series of .100 inch low-profile variable post height terminal strips. The series is characterized by its ability to adjust post heights and body positions, making it suitable for complex stacking scenarios where standard rigid connectors would fail to provide adequate alignment or fit.

Headers, Male Pins Replacement Considerations

Consult official Samtec substitution guides for verified equivalent parts. Generic industry substitutes may not replicate the unique variable post height mechanics or specific square post dimensions required for proper function.
