Headers, Receptacles, Female Sockets Procurement Notes

Verify the exact part number against manufacturer documentation to ensure compatibility with required contact surface specifications. Confirm that the tin-plated finish meets the application's environmental requirements. Check datasheets for precise mechanical dimensions and mating force characteristics before integration.

Headers, Receptacles, Female Sockets Selection Notes

Select this component when a 54-position header with 2.54 mm pitch is required. Ensure the application supports through-hole soldering processes. Consider the tin-plated contact finish for general use cases where gold plating is not strictly necessary. Verify fork contact requirements against mating connector specifications.

Headers, Receptacles, Female Sockets Part Context

This part belongs to the Fischer Elektronik BL series of board connectors. The series includes various pin counts and contact finishes, such as gold or tin plating. The BL 2 54 Z specifically provides a high-density interconnection solution for printed circuit boards using standard 2.54 mm spacing.

Headers, Receptacles, Female Sockets Replacement Considerations

Compatible substitutes within the same series include variants with different pin counts or contact finishes, such as BL 2 54 G for gold-plated contacts. Ensure mating connectors match the fork contact design and 0.635 mm separable pitch specification.
