Overview
The 3-640440-2 is a 2-position, single-row receptacle from the MTA-100 series designed for efficient wire-to-board connections. It utilizes Insulation Displacement Contact (IDC) technology to terminate 22 AWG discrete or ribbon wire without the need for stripping or crimping. The connector features a 0.100 inch (2.54mm) pitch and includes a locking ramp to ensure secure mating in high-vibration environments.
Why Choose This Part
The IDC termination method significantly reduces assembly time and labor costs by allowing mass termination of wires. Its locking ramp provides superior retention compared to standard friction-fit headers, while the 0.100 inch pitch maintains compatibility with standard 2.54mm pin headers.
