PCB headers are shrouded and polarized to avoid mis-mating and are available in vertical or horizontal orientation. Cable assemblies are available to suit individual customer design including connector types from other manufacturers.
A combination of vertical PCB header and cable assembly are perfect for areas where PCB space is at a premium, offering a tiny footprint with a mating height of just 3.95mm (in 0.8mm pitch). Where height above the PCB is critical, right angle headers offer a tiny 1.75mm mated height, with a footprint depth of only 3.9mm (in 0.8mm pitch).
Rated currents are 1.0A for 1.00mm pitch and 0.5A for 0.8mm pitch, with a temperature range of -25°C to 85°C. Cable Sockets and PCB headers are available in a selection of colours for polarisation purposes. Both 0.8mm & 1.0mm versions are ideally suited to many applications where board space is limited or because miniaturisation requires fine pitch connections between PCBs.
