MK 14 X 3 15 G

Headers, Male Pins Overview

The Fischer Elektronik MK 14 X 3 15 G is a male pin header featuring 15 contacts in a single row with a 2.54 mm pitch. Designed for through-hole straight PCB mounting, it utilizes CuZn-alloy contacts with gold plating. The component supports a nominal current of 1.5 A and a nominal voltage rating as specified in official documentation. It exhibits a volume resistance of ≤10 mΩ and inter-contact capacitance of ≤0.4 pF. The unit offers vibration resistance up to 15 g and includes an insertion depth specification for PCB integration.

Headers, Male Pins Feature Summary

• Gold-plated CuZn-alloy contacts ensure reliable electrical connection
• Single-row configuration with 2.54 mm pitch for standard spacing
• Through-hole straight mounting style for secure PCB attachment

Headers, Male Pins Applications

• Board-to-Board connections
• Wire-to-Board interconnections
• General electronic circuit assembly

Headers, Male Pins Procurement Notes

Verify the specific contact surface finish against project requirements, as datasheets indicate variations such as Ni+Au or Ni+Sn across similar series parts. Confirm that the 1.5 A nominal current and 10 mΩ resistance meet system constraints. Ensure the through-hole straight package aligns with the target PCB layout and drilling specifications before finalizing procurement.

Headers, Male Pins Selection Notes

Select this part when a single-row, 15-pin male header with 2.54 mm pitch is required. The gold-plated contacts are suitable for applications demanding low contact resistance and corrosion resistance. Consider the 1.5 A current rating and 15 g vibration tolerance during design. Ensure the straight through-hole form factor matches the assembly process and board thickness.

Headers, Male Pins Part Context

This component belongs to the Fischer Elektronik MK 14 X 3 series of male headers. The series provides various pole counts while maintaining consistent 2.54 mm pitch and construction standards. The MK 14 X 3 15 G specifically addresses needs for 15-contact interconnects within this standardized family, offering a balance of density and reliability for general-purpose electronics.

Headers, Male Pins Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes within the same series include the MK 14 X 3 26 Z and MK 14 X 3 11 G, which share identical mechanical and electrical characteristics but differ in contact count. Verify that the alternative pin count meets the circuit requirements before substitution.
