MK 51 21 G

Headers, Male Pins Overview

The MK 51 21 G is a male pin header connector manufactured by Fischer Elektronik. It features a through-hole mounting style with 21 positions arranged in a single row. The connector utilizes a 0.100 inch (2.54 mm) pitch spacing between contacts. The pins are designed as solder and plug pins with a diameter of 0.5 mm, intended for rectangular PCB connections. This component provides board-to-board or wire-to-board interconnection capabilities within electronic assemblies.

Headers, Male Pins Feature Summary

• Precision solder and plug pins with 0.5 mm diameter for rectangular PCB connection
• Through-hole mounting configuration ensuring mechanical stability
• Standard 2.54 mm pitch spacing for consistent electrical performance

Headers, Male Pins Applications

• Electronic manufacturing requiring reliable interconnections
• Automated assembly line integration

Headers, Male Pins Procurement Notes

Verify the specific contact count matches the required circuit design before procurement. Confirm that the through-hole footprint aligns with the target PCB layout dimensions. Ensure compatibility with mating connectors regarding pin diameter and pitch specifications to guarantee proper engagement and signal integrity during operation.

Headers, Male Pins Selection Notes

Select this component when a 21-position male header is required for rigid PCB mounting. The 2.54 mm pitch makes it suitable for standard digital and analog signal routing. Consider the 0.5 mm pin diameter for appropriate current carrying capacity and mechanical retention needs in the final assembly environment.

Headers, Male Pins Part Context

This part belongs to the Fischer Elektronik MK 51 series, which offers various contact counts ranging from 1 to 50 positions. The series is characterized by its precise dimensions and high-quality plating, designed for applications demanding consistent electrical performance and mechanical stability in electronic devices and systems.

Headers, Male Pins Replacement Considerations

Compatible substitutes must match the 21-position count, 2.54 mm pitch, and through-hole mounting style. Verify that alternative headers maintain the same 0.5 mm pin diameter and male pin configuration to ensure interchangeability without modifying the existing PCB footprint or mating interface.
