M40-4010546

Headers, Male Pins Overview

The Harwin M40-4010546 is a male pin header connector belonging to the M40 series. It features a single row with five positions and a 1 mm pitch. The component utilizes surface-mount technology (SMT) for horizontal mounting on printed circuit boards. It includes a shrouded design with tab headers to ensure proper alignment and stability during assembly. The contacts are designed for solder termination, providing reliable electrical connections in compact electronic applications.

Headers, Male Pins Feature Summary

• Single row configuration with five contact positions
• Surface-mount horizontal orientation for PCB integration
• Shrouded housing structure with tab headers for alignment

Headers, Male Pins Applications

• Compact consumer electronics assemblies
• Industrial control board interconnections
• Communication equipment signal routing

Headers, Male Pins Procurement Notes

Verify component authenticity through authorized distributors or direct manufacturer channels. Confirm RoHS compliance status and lead times prior to ordering. Ensure storage conditions meet moisture sensitivity level requirements to maintain solderability and connection integrity throughout the supply chain process.

Headers, Male Pins Selection Notes

Select this connector when space-constrained designs require low-profile horizontal headers. The 1 mm pitch supports high-density layouts. Verify that the PCB footprint matches the specific SMT pad dimensions. Consider mechanical retention needs provided by the shrouded tab design for vibration-resistant environments.

Headers, Male Pins Part Context

This part belongs to the Harwin M40 series of rectangular connectors. The series is characterized by fine-pitch options suitable for modern miniaturized electronics. The M40-4010546 specifically addresses the need for reliable wire-to-board or board-to-board interfaces in tight spatial constraints using standard surface-mount processes.

Headers, Male Pins Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes within the same series include M40-4010246 (2-position) and M40-4011546 (15-position). Cross-brand replacements must match the 1 mm pitch, 5-position count, and SMT right-angle form factor. Verify compatible mating socket specifications before implementation.
