WTA40SAD7JL-B82

Overview

The WTA40SAD7JL-B82 is a rectangular military specification board connector from the AirBorn W Series. It features 40 positions arranged in two rows with female socket contacts. The component utilizes through-hole solder termination and is designed for straight board mount installation. Constructed with a polyphenylene sulfide (PPS) housing and copper alloy contacts, it supports a 2.54 mm pitch. Rated for 1 kV voltage and 5 A current, it operates within a temperature range of -65°C to +125°C and offers an insulation resistance of 5 GOhms.

Feature Summary

• Features gold-plated copper alloy socket contacts for reliable signal transmission.
• Utilizes a polyphenylene sulfide (PPS) housing for structural integrity.
• Designed for straight through-hole board mounting applications.

Applications

• Military electronic systems requiring MIL-DTL-55302 compliance
• Aerospace circuit interconnections
• High-density board-to-board connections

Procurement Notes

Verify that the specific suffix JL corresponds to the required contact termination style and orientation. Confirm RoHS compliance status as lead-free variants exist within the series. Ensure the ordering quantity meets any minimum order requirements specified by the manufacturer or distributor. Validate that the 40-position configuration matches the design footprint.

Selection Notes

Select this part when a 40-contact receptacle with female sockets is required for straight board mounting. Compare against other W Series options if different contact counts or plug configurations are needed. Verify that the 2.54 mm pitch aligns with the PCB layout constraints. Consider the operating temperature range and voltage rating for environmental suitability.

Part Context

This component belongs to the AirBorn W Series, which provides rectangular connectors compliant with MIL-DTL-55302 standards. The series offers various contact counts and termination styles for board and panel applications. The WTA designation specifically identifies the two-row straight receptacle configuration without mounting ears.

Replacement Considerations

Cross-reference with other WTA40 variants for different contact types or plating options. Verify compatibility with mating plugs from the same W Series family. Check for updated revisions or alternative manufacturers offering equivalent MIL-DTL-55302 specifications.
