MTMM-102-12-F-S-450

Headers, Male Pins Overview

The MTMM-102-12-F-S-450 is a variable post height header strip manufactured by Samtec Inc. It features a 2.00 mm (.0787") pitch and utilizes a .020" (0.50 mm) square post contact system. Designed for through-hole termination, this component offers vertical orientation and supports custom configurations with up to four rows and 200 total pins. The connector provides current ratings of up to 3.2 Amps per pin. Its Flex Stack design allows for modified post heights and body positions in .005" (0.13 mm) increments, accommodating specific application requirements.

Headers, Male Pins Feature Summary

• Flex Stack design enables adjustable post height and body position in precise increments
• Supports industry-wide variety of low profile pin counts and terminal lengths
• Accommodates custom configurations with up to four rows and 200 total pins
• Utilizes .020" (0.50 mm) square post contact system for reliable connection

Headers, Male Pins Applications

• Through-hole termination assemblies requiring flexible height adjustments
• Applications needing customizable pin counts and terminal lengths
• Systems requiring high current capacity per pin
• Automotive A-Series product implementations

Headers, Male Pins Procurement Notes

Verify the exact configuration against the official series print before finalizing the design, as 2D views may not represent the actual product. Confirm compatibility with mating connectors and PCB registration due to the unshrouded nature of the header. Contact Samtec’s Signal Integrity Group for 3D models suitable for EM field solvers if electromagnetic analysis is required for the integration process.

Headers, Male Pins Selection Notes

Select this component when variable post height flexibility is critical for assembly tolerance compensation. The 2.00 mm pitch and .020" square posts offer a balance of density and robustness. Ensure the application benefits from the ability to specify exact post heights. Consider the through-hole termination method for mechanical stability. Verify that the required pin count and row configuration fall within the supported limits of up to 200 pins.

Headers, Male Pins Part Context

This part belongs to the MTMM series of variable post height header strips. The series is characterized by its extensive configurability, allowing designers to specify unique pin counts, terminal lengths, and row arrangements. It serves as a versatile interconnection solution for various electronic assemblies where standard fixed-height headers are insufficient for meeting specific spatial or electrical requirements.

Headers, Male Pins Replacement Considerations

Substitute only with other MTMM series parts sharing identical pitch, termination type, and contact system specifications. Verify that any alternative maintains the same Flex Stack capabilities and current rating. Cross-reference the pin count and row configuration to ensure functional equivalence in the target assembly without modifying the PCB footprint.
