AMP TE Connectivity Micro-MaTch Top Entry Socket 8 Way

The AMP TE Connectivity 8 Way Top Entry Socket is a female-on-board PCB connector with 1.27 mm pitch spacing, built around a patented Micro-MaTch contact spring system.

The connector is designed to be soldered onto PC boards with a nominal thickness of 1.6 mm. Indented solder legs ensure firm retention before and during soldering cycles.

Polarisation is achieved between the Micro-MaTch male connectors and the PC board, so the top entry female connector does not require polarising features. The orientation of the connector on the PCB is therefore irrelevant, offering greater flexibility during installation.
