MK 14 X 2 6 G

Headers, Male Pins Overview

The MK 14 X 2 6 G is a male pin header connector manufactured by Fischer Elektronik, designed for through-hole mounting on printed circuit boards. This component features a single row of six contacts with a standard 2.54 mm (0.100 inch) pitch. It utilizes gold-plated CuZn-alloy contacts to ensure reliable electrical performance and corrosion resistance. The connector supports a maximum current rating of 1.5 A and withstands voltages up to 60 V DC, with an insulation voltage of 1000 V. Contact resistance is specified at less than or equal to 10 mΩ, while capacitance between adjacent contacts remains below 0.4 pF. The housing material is PA 4.6, rated UL 94 V-0.

Headers, Male Pins Feature Summary

• Gold-plated parallel PCB connection using CuZn-alloy contacts
• Through-hole mounting design for secure board attachment
• Single-row configuration with standardized 2.54 mm spacing

Headers, Male Pins Applications

• Board-to-board interconnections
• Wire-to-board connections
• General electronic equipment assembly

Headers, Male Pins Procurement Notes

Verify the specific contact count matches the required six-position configuration before procurement. Confirm that the through-hole mounting style aligns with the target PCB layout and soldering capabilities. Ensure the operating environment does not exceed the 60 V DC voltage limit or 1.5 A current rating. Check that the PA 4.6 housing material meets any necessary flammability standards for the final application.

Headers, Male Pins Selection Notes

Select this model when a single-row, six-pin male header is required for through-hole implementation. The 2.54 mm pitch ensures compatibility with standard breadboards and ribbon cables. Consider the gold plating for applications requiring low contact resistance and long-term reliability. Evaluate the mechanical stability provided by the parallel PCB connection against vibration requirements.

Headers, Male Pins Part Context

This component belongs to the MK 14 X 2 series of pin headers from Fischer Elektronik. The series offers various pole counts, ranging from small configurations like two pins to larger arrays exceeding forty positions. All variants share the same fundamental design principles, including the 2.54 mm pitch and through-hole construction, allowing for modular expansion in electronic designs.

Headers, Male Pins Replacement Considerations

Compatible substitutes within the MK 14 X 2 series include other part numbers with identical pitch and row count but different contact quantities, such as MK 14 X 2 4 G or MK 14 X 2 8 G, provided the pin count adjustment fits the design.
