MK 205 48 G

Headers, Male Pins Overview

The MK 205 48 G is a male pin header connector from the Fischer Elektronik MK 205 series, designed for through-hole PCB mounting. It features 48 contacts arranged in a dual-row configuration with a 2.54 mm (0.100 inch) pitch. The contacts are constructed from CuZn alloy with tin plating, offering a nominal voltage of 60 V DC and a test voltage of 1000 V. The unit operates within a temperature range of -40°C to 163°C and carries an UL94 V-0 flammability rating.

Headers, Male Pins Feature Summary

• Dual-row male pin header design with solder and plug pins
• CuZn alloy contacts with tin plating for reliable electrical connection
• High thermal stability supporting operation up to 163°C
• UL94 V-0 rated insulation material for enhanced fire safety

Headers, Male Pins Applications

• Industrial control systems requiring robust interconnects
• Test and measurement equipment interfaces
• General-purpose PCB-to-PCB or PCB-to-cable connections

Headers, Male Pins Procurement Notes

Verify that the specific part number matches the required contact count and row configuration. Confirm that the operating environment temperature does not exceed the specified 163°C limit. Ensure that the mating connector interface is compatible with the 0.5 mm pin diameter and 2.54 mm pitch specifications provided in the datasheet.

Headers, Male Pins Selection Notes

Select this component when a high-density, dual-row male header is required for through-hole applications. The choice is driven by the need for a 2.54 mm pitch and a 48-contact capacity. Consider the 60 V DC rating and UL94 V-0 insulation if safety and voltage constraints are critical factors in the circuit design.

Headers, Male Pins Part Context

This component belongs to the Fischer Elektronik MK 205 series, which specializes in solder and plug pins with a 0.5 mm diameter. The series is engineered for demanding industrial environments, providing shock resistance and stable volume resistance. The MK 205 48 G represents a specific variant within this family, defined by its 48-pin count and dual-row layout.

Headers, Male Pins Replacement Considerations

Cross-reference with other Fischer Elektronik MK 205 variants such as MK 205 76 G or MK 205 100 G for different contact counts. Verify that any substitute maintains the same 2.54 mm pitch, dual-row structure, and CuZn/tin-plated contact material to ensure mechanical and electrical compatibility.
