PETC-04-40-04-01-T-VT-LC

Headers, Male Pins Overview

The PETC-04-40-01-T-VT-LC is a PowerStrip high-power terminal strip manufactured by Samtec. It features a hybrid configuration with .250-inch (6.35 mm) power pin spacing and .100-inch (2.54 mm) signal pin spacing. The component supports up to 40 A current rating per power pin. It utilizes a vertical through-hole termination style for board mounting. The insulator material is black liquid crystal polymer (LCP). The terminals are made of copper alloy with matte tin plating over a nickel barrier. The operating temperature range is specified from -55°C to +105°C.

Headers, Male Pins Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix codes against the official Samtec datasheet to ensure correct pin count, plating type, and termination style. Confirm RoHS compliance status and environmental ratings prior to procurement. Cross-reference the full part number to avoid mismatches in spacing or current capacity requirements.

Headers, Male Pins Selection Notes

Select this component when both high-current power handling and dense signal routing are required on a single interface. Ensure the PCB layout accommodates the distinct .250-inch and .100-inch pitch patterns. Verify that the mating connector matches the hybrid pin arrangement and current specifications.

Headers, Male Pins Part Context

This part belongs to the PETC series, which integrates power and signal contacts into one assembly. It is part of the broader PowerStrip family designed for efficient board-to-board or cable-to-board connections requiring mixed signal and power transmission capabilities.

Headers, Male Pins Replacement Considerations

Check for direct substitutes within the PETC series with identical pin counts and spacing. Verify that any alternative maintains the 40 A power rating and compatible termination style for the specific application.
