TSW-128-09-G-D-RA

Headers, Male Pins Overview

Samtec TSW-128-09-G-D-RA is a right-angle PCB header strip featuring 56 positions across two rows with a 2.54 mm (0.1 in) pitch. Designed for through-hole mounting, it utilizes phosphor bronze contacts with gold plating to ensure reliable signal transmission. The component supports operating temperatures from -55°C to +125°C and offers voltage ratings ranging from 400 VAC to 550 VAC, alongside current ratings between 4.3 A and 6.3 A. Constructed with a polybutylene terephthalate (PBT) housing rated UL 94 V-0, this unshrouded male pin connector facilitates secure board-to-board or cable connections in demanding electronic environments.

Headers, Male Pins Feature Summary

• Unshrouded design with .025 inch square post contacts for standard terminal strip applications
• Gold-plated phosphor bronze contacts provide durable electrical connectivity
• Right-angle through-hole termination ensures stable mechanical mounting on printed circuit boards

Headers, Male Pins Applications

• Board-to-board interconnections
• Cable-to-board wiring systems
• General-purpose electronic assemblies requiring high current capacity

Headers, Male Pins Procurement Notes

Verify the specific contact current rating required for your application against the datasheet values of 4.3 A to 6.3 A. Confirm that the 550 VAC maximum voltage rating aligns with your system's electrical requirements. Ensure the right-angle through-hole footprint matches your PCB layout constraints before finalizing procurement orders.

Headers, Male Pins Selection Notes

Select this component when a standard 0.100 inch pitch header is needed for high-voltage or high-current scenarios. The dual-row configuration provides dense positioning options while maintaining robust mechanical stability. Consider the UL 94 V-0 flammability rating if fire safety compliance is critical for the target enclosure environment.

Headers, Male Pins Part Context

The TSW series represents Samtec's classic line of standard terminal strip headers. These components are widely utilized in industrial and commercial electronics due to their versatile pin counts and reliable performance. The TSW-128-09 variant specifically addresses applications requiring a 56-position interface with standardized spacing.

Headers, Male Pins Replacement Considerations

Compatible substitutes within the TSW family include TSW-128-08-G-D-RA and TSW-128-09-G-S-RE, provided the row count and shroud configuration match the design requirements.
