Quick Reference Guide
AMP CT Connector Series
The AMP CT connectors are a miniature wire-to-board and wire-to-wire interconnect solution.
The AMP CT connector series has proven performance in its harness making capability. A variety of harness-making machines are available ranging from hand tools for low volume production to high-speed automatic crimping machines for medium to high volume productions. AMP high-speed automatic crimping machines are easy to operate, eliminating the need for tedious work of changing parts inside the equipment to adapt to changes in harness styles. Two types of housings are available, including Crimp and Mass Terminated (MT), which are preloaded with insulation displacement contacts.
The Box or shrouded headers are highly resistant to scooping at mating/unmating.

How to select an AMP CT connector part number
The charts on this page highlight the relationship between the number of contacts (positions) to the part number. Please see the sample chart below that was designed to help you select the correct part number for your needs. For single digit position to dash numbers, attach the digit to the end base number. For double digit position to dash numbers, attach the first digit to the front of the part number, add a dash and the base part number, then follow the base part number with a dash and the second digit.

Questions to ask at Design In stage
What wire guage will you be using? More flexibility with AWG when using
Crimp vs. MT. Crimp housings accept 22-30 AWG and MT housings accept
24-28 AWG.
Are the connectors available for IDC? Yes, we offer a MT version that is preloaded with IDC contacts.
Is your process automated? MT housings are more suitable for automated processes.
Where can I find information on current rating, voltage and operating
temperatures? Please see Product Specification Information.on page 4 of this QRG.
Which is a more standard header, with or without a locating boss?
The most standard headers tend to have a locating boss as it makes it easier for the customer to align the connector onto their board.
What special retention mechanisms are available to help ensure PCB stability?
Most of the T/H headers have kinked legs, and the SMT headers have solder tabs to help ensure PCB stability.
What are my tooling options? Tyco Electronics offers comprehensive tooling options including Manual Pistol-Grips, manual Mini-Press, Pneumatic
Mini-press, Semi-Auto DECAM and an Automatic DECAM tool. For more information, please visit tooling.tycoelectronics.com
What is the benefit of choosing Box over Std type headers? Box type headers have an extra wall, that is a more reliable connector design intended to prevent stubbing.
