MTSW-108-09-L-D-100-RA

Headers, Male Pins Overview

The MTSW-108-09-L-D-100-RA is a board stacking connector manufactured by Samtec Inc. It features 18 contacts arranged in 2 rows with male polarity and right-angle orientation. The component utilizes solder terminals for through-hole termination. It is RoHS compliant and lead-free. The contact system employs phosphor bronze material with gold plating over nickel for the mating interface and matte tin over nickel for the termination side.

Headers, Male Pins Feature Summary

• Flex Stack design enables modified post height and body position adjustments
• Variable post height terminal strip configuration
• Right-angle orientation for space-constrained board stacking

Headers, Male Pins Applications

• Board-to-board interconnection
• Cable-to-board connections
• High-density PCB stacking applications

Headers, Male Pins Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix codes against the official Samtec datasheet to ensure correct pin length, plating thickness, and packaging format. Confirm that the right-angle orientation matches the assembly requirements. Check for any automotive or specialized series designations if operating in harsh environments. Ensure compatibility with mating connectors from the same MTSW family.

Headers, Male Pins Selection Notes

Select this component when variable post height flexibility is required for precise board spacing. The right-angle form factor suits applications where vertical clearance is limited. Verify that the 0.100 inch pitch aligns with existing PCB footprint standards. Consider the mechanical stability provided by the two-row configuration for robust signal integrity.

Headers, Male Pins Part Context

This part belongs to the MTSW series, which is a variation of the classic TSW header strip. The series offers a wide range of overall pin lengths to satisfy various application needs. It maintains the standard 0.100 inch pitch while providing enhanced flexibility through its modified square post design.

Headers, Male Pins Replacement Considerations

Compatible mates include other MTSW series headers with matching pitch and row count. Verify exact pin length specifications before substitution. No direct cross-brand substitutes are officially confirmed without detailed mechanical verification.
