Additional Details:

The PCT2-104-03-L-D-03 socket strip is designed for automated pick-and-place assembly. Its flat surface allows for easy vacuum nozzle pickup and placement on the PCB. The gold plating on the contacts provides excellent conductivity and corrosion resistance, ensuring a reliable connection even in harsh environments. The black LCP insulator offers excellent electrical insulation and mechanical strength. The 2mm pitch allows for high-density packaging, making it suitable for applications where space is limited. This connector is commonly used in stacking applications where two or more PCBs need to be connected in a parallel or perpendicular orientation. The Samtec Tiger Claw™ contact system provides a secure and reliable connection with high retention force. It’s designed for reflow soldering processes. The mating terminal strip is TCT series.
