DW-03-15-G-D-400 – SAMTEC

Overview

The SAMTEC DW-03-15-G-D-400 is a robust 2×6 position board-to-board connector designed for high-density interconnects in demanding electronic systems. Its primary function is to establish reliable electrical pathways between printed circuit boards, facilitating signal and power distribution. A critical operational characteristic is its 2.54mm terminal pitch, which balances high contact density with ease of soldering and assembly. However, designers must carefully consider the maximum current rating of 3A per contact in conjunction with thermal management, as high-density configurations can lead to significant heat buildup, potentially impacting long-term reliability if not adequately addressed.
