Samtec CLP Series Horizontal Surface PCB Socket, 18-Contact, 2 Row, 1.27 mm Pitch, Through Hole CLP-109-02-L-D-P-TR

The Samtec CLP-109-02-L-D-P-TR is a high-performance horizontal surface PCB socket designed for electronic applications requiring reliable, low-profile board-to-board interconnections. Featuring 18 contacts arranged in 2 rows with a 1.27 mm pitch, this socket utilizes a dual wipe contact mechanism to ensure stable electrical connections over repeated mate cycles.

Its housing is constructed from liquid crystal polymer, providing excellent mechanical strength and thermal resistance suitable for industrial, consumer electronics, and telecommunications equipment. The phosphor bronze contacts are plated with a thin, light selective gold layer to optimize conductivity and prevent corrosion while the tail is finished with matte tin for robust solder joints.

This component supports a continuous current of 3.4A and an operating voltage up to 395V, making it suitable for a wide range of PCB connector applications such as embedded systems, signal processing modules, and interface adapters. The horizontal orientation of the socket is optimized for surface mounting with through-hole termination, facilitating easy assembly and reliable mechanical fixation.

Designed to function effectively within a broad temperature range from -55°C to 125°C, the CLP series socket ensures consistent performance in demanding environments. Additional features include alignment pins to aid during PCB assembly and compatibility with tape and reel packaging systems to support automated pick-and-place manufacturing.
