Headers, Male Pins Procurement Notes

Verify the specific tin plating configuration against application requirements, as gold variants exist within the series. Confirm insulation material specifications, noting that some datasheets list polyester while others indicate LCP for similar part numbers. Ensure compatibility with mating connectors using .025 inch square posts. Check RoHS compliance status and moisture sensitivity levels prior to assembly planning.

Headers, Male Pins Selection Notes

Select this component when variable height adjustment is required for precise board spacing. The two-row configuration supports higher density connections compared to single-row alternatives. Consider the straight orientation for standard vertical mounting. Evaluate thermal resistance capabilities if operating near the upper temperature limit of 125°C.
