Additional Details

The FW series socket strips cater to high-density, high-performance applications. The 0.050" pitch enables a compact footprint, while gold-plated contacts maintain excellent signal integrity. The LCP insulator ensures optimal electrical and mechanical characteristics in demanding environments. The part number FW-10-05-H-D-395-160-P indicates a double-row socket strip with 20 total positions, a straight body, a height of 0.395", and a tail length of 0.160". It's engineered to mate with Samtec's terminal strips to create a complete board-to-board system. The "-P" at the end designates a pick-and-place pad.
