Samtec Inc. Header, 2.54 Mm, Through Hole, 36 Contacts; Connector Systems Samtec TSW-136-08-G-S-RA-003

The Header, 2.54 mm, Through Hole, 36 Contacts (part number 03R0324) is designed for board-to-board applications with a pitch spacing of 2.54 mm. It features a single row configuration with 36 contacts and is compatible with various mating connectors including SSW, SSQ, SSM, and others. The header is constructed with a black glass-filled polyester insulator and utilizes phosphor bronze for the terminals, which can be plated with either gold or tin over nickel. This product operates within a temperature range of -55 °C to +125 °C when gold-plated, and -55 °C to +105 °C with tin plating. The voltage ratings vary depending on the mating connector, with a maximum of 550 VAC when mated with SSW connectors. The current rating per pin varies based on the mating connector, with values ranging from 4.3 A to 6.3 A. The header is RoHS compliant and offers lead-free solderable options. Engineers should consider this header for applications requiring reliable connections in compact spaces, particularly where high-temperature performance and compliance with environmental standards are necessary.
