CH88142A100-B

Headers, Male Pins Overview

The CH88142A100-B is a board connector featuring 14 contacts arranged in a dual-row configuration with a 0.100-inch (2.54mm) pitch. It is designed as a male header for through-hole mounting, utilizing square pin sockets. The component employs brass contacts with gold plating on both mating and tail surfaces to ensure reliable conductivity. Constructed with a black polybutylene terephthalate insulator rated UL94 V-0, it supports a maximum current of 3A at 250VAC. The connector includes a four-wall shield design and operates within a temperature range of -40°C to 105°C.
