MTSW-150-07-S-D-158

Headers, Male Pins Overview

The MTSW-150-07-S-D-158 is a Samtec Inc. through-hole modified header strip featuring a 2.54 mm (0.100 in) pitch and a 100-position, 2-row configuration. It utilizes gold flash/tin contact finishes on phosphor bronze square posts with an overall contact length of 10.92 mm (0.430 in). The component operates within a temperature range of -55°C to +125°C and employs a liquid crystal polymer (LCP) housing rated UL 94 V-0. Designed for vertical mounting, it offers flexible post height adjustments in 0.13 mm increments.

Headers, Male Pins Feature Summary

• Flex Stack design allows modified post height and body position adjustments
• Square post contact system ensures reliable mating connections
• Through-hole termination provides secure PCB attachment

Headers, Male Pins Applications

• General electronic interconnects requiring variable pin lengths
• Automotive A-Series product applications
• Custom configurations up to four rows and 200 total pins

Headers, Male Pins Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix against official Samtec documentation to confirm exact terminal length and contact finish specifications. Ensure compatibility with mating connectors regarding post dimensions and insulation height. Confirm RoHS compliance status and lead times directly with authorized distributors or the manufacturer prior to procurement.

Headers, Male Pins Selection Notes

Select this component when standard TSW headers do not meet specific board-to-board spacing requirements. The Flex Stack feature accommodates slight misalignments or varying stack heights. Verify that the 2.54 mm pitch aligns with existing PCB footprint designs and that the 100-position count matches circuit interface needs without excessive unused pins.

Headers, Male Pins Part Context

This part belongs to the MTSW series, a variation of the classic 0.100 inch pitch TSW header strip. The series is characterized by its availability in a wide range of overall pin lengths, allowing engineers to customize connector heights for diverse assembly constraints while maintaining standard pricing structures.

Headers, Male Pins Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include other MTSW series variants with matching pitch and row count but different terminal lengths, such as MTSW-150-07-S-D-185. Cross-reference physical dimensions and electrical ratings before substitution to ensure mechanical fit and performance integrity.
