ZW-10-17-F interconnect Series

samtec

The ZW-10-17-F interconnect series from Samtec is a stackable through-hole board connector with a 2.54mm pitch. This makes it ideal for a variety of printed circuit board (PCB) applications, particularly in environments where space is a premium but robust connections are essential. If you're working on high-density PCB designs for consumer electronics, medical devices, or industrial control systems, these connectors can be a game-changer due to their flexibility and reliability. One thing worth noting is that the stackability feature allows for modular design approaches, which can significantly reduce assembly time and complexity. Engineers tend to reach for this when they need to connect multiple PCBs or layers within a single enclosure, ensuring a secure and reliable connection without the need for additional mechanical fasteners. Another practical benefit is the ease of rework and repair, as individual connectors can be removed and replaced without affecting the rest of the assembly. The 2.54mm pitch is a standard choice for many components, making it easy to integrate with other parts of your design. However, if you're working with metric designs or need a different pitch, you
