Headers, Male Pins Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix D54 against official Molex/AirBorn documentation to confirm exact housing or contact variations. Ensure compatibility with mating receptacles such as the WTA series. Confirm RoHS compliance status and lead times directly with authorized distributors, as availability may vary by region.

Headers, Male Pins Selection Notes

Select this component when a straight, through-hole male plug is required for high-density interconnects. The 2-row configuration maximizes circuit density on the PCB. Verify that the 5 A current rating and 1 kV voltage withstand meet the system's electrical requirements. Ensure the operating temperature range aligns with the environmental conditions of the application.

Headers, Male Pins Part Context

This part belongs to the AirBorn W Series, a line of rectangular connectors designed for harsh environments. The series offers various position counts and contact types. The WTAV prefix indicates a vertical plug configuration, while the PD9J suffix specifies the solder tail length and contact style. This family is widely used in applications requiring durable, high-reliability interconnections.

Headers, Male Pins Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include parts sharing the MIL-DTL-55302 standard and identical physical dimensions. Cross-reference with other manufacturers offering equivalent 40-position, 2.54 mm pitch plugs. Ensure mating compatibility with existing WTA series receptacles before substitution.
