WTA70PCJT

Overview

The AirBorn WTA70PCJT is a rectangular MIL-DTL-55302 board connector from the W Series. It features 70 positions arranged in two rows with male pin contacts. The unit utilizes a solder cup termination style and is designed for straight board mount installation. Constructed with copper alloy contacts featuring gold plating, the housing is made of Polyphenylene Sulfide (PPS). It supports a current rating of 5 A and a voltage rating of 1 kV, operating within a temperature range of -65°C to +125°C.

Feature Summary

• Compliant with MIL-DTL-55302 military specifications for rugged reliability
• Features gold-plated copper alloy contacts for stable signal transmission
• Utilizes PPS housing material for high thermal stability
• Designed for direct solder cup termination on printed circuit boards

Applications

• Military avionics systems requiring high-density interconnects
• Ruggedized communication equipment
• Defense electronics platforms
• Aerospace control modules

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific contact orientation and hardware configuration against the official datasheet before procurement. Confirm that the solder cup termination method aligns with your assembly process capabilities. Ensure environmental ratings meet the operational requirements of the target application environment.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a high-pin-count, two-row male connector is required for board-level mounting. Consider the 2.54 mm pitch and 70-position capacity for space-constrained designs. Verify compatibility with mating receptacles within the same W Series family to ensure proper interface alignment.

Part Context

This part belongs to the AirBorn W Series, a line of rectangular connectors designed for demanding environments. The series offers various contact counts and termination options. The WTA70PCJT specifically addresses needs for robust, high-density connections in sectors where standard commercial components may fail under stress.

Replacement Considerations

Check for cross-references such as M55302/63A70P if available. Verify that any substitute maintains the same MIL-DTL-55302 compliance, physical dimensions, and electrical characteristics to ensure interchangeability without redesign.
