Molex Micro-Fit 3.0 Series Straight Surface PCB Header, 3 Contacts, 3 mm Pitch, Shrouded, Brass Gold Plated, 5A 43650-0323

Molex 43650-0323 Micro-Fit 3.0 Series Straight Surface PCB Header is a compact wire-to-board connector featuring 3 contacts arranged in a single row with a 3 mm pitch. Manufactured with a high temperature thermoplastic housing rated UL 94V-0, this connector can withstand soldering temperatures up to 265°C, making it suitable for infrared reflow processes.

The connector supports a current carrying capacity of 5A, one of the highest in its footprint category, ensuring robust power distribution in various low to mid-power electronic applications. Its shrouded design includes positive latching via a locking ramp, which secures the mating connection and prevents accidental disconnections, enhancing reliability in use.

Brass contacts plated with gold provide improved electrical conductivity and corrosion resistance. The connector's solder termination type and surface mount technology compatibility facilitate flexible PCB assembly processes. Additionally, solderable press-fit metal retention clips are incorporated for robust mechanical retention on PCB boards during assembly.

This Micro-Fit 3.0 header is engineered to operate within a temperature range from -40°C to 125°C, suitable for demanding operational environments found in military, telecommunications, data communications, consumer products, medical, solar power, and gaming terminal applications.

The connector is made in Mexico, meeting quality manufacturing standards. It does not include specific certifications but adheres to industry best practices in materials and construction.
