Additional Details
The TW-08-03-G-S-120-170 connector features a 0.8 mm pitch for high-density connections. The '03' likely represents the number of rows, however, the 'S' indicates a single row configuration. The 12.0mm body height determines the distance between the boards when stacked, and the 17.0mm tail length defines how far the connector extends from the board. Refer to the Samtec datasheet for comprehensive specifications, including current rating, voltage rating, and mating information. These connectors often mate with Samtec's FTSH series sockets.
