MK LP 240 28 G

Headers, Male Pins Overview

The MK LP 240 28 G is a male pin header manufactured by Fischer Elektronik. It features a board-to-board and wire-to-board connection type with a 2.54 mm pitch. The component has 2 rows and 28 contacts, designed for through-hole straight mounting. Contact material is copper zinc with gold plating on the post. Insulation is made of glass-filled polyamide (PA46). Electrical ratings include 1.5 A current and 60 V DC voltage, with 1000 V dielectric strength.

Headers, Male Pins Feature Summary

• Low profile design optimized for space-saving applications
• Gold-plated contacts for reliable conductivity
• Glass-filled polyamide insulation for structural stability

Headers, Male Pins Applications

• Board-to-board interconnections
• Wire-to-board connections
• Space-constrained electronic assemblies

Headers, Male Pins Procurement Notes

Verify the specific contact finish and insulation material against the manufacturer's latest datasheet to ensure compliance with environmental regulations such as RoHS. Confirm that the through-hole straight configuration matches the PCB layout requirements. Check for any ordering suffixes that may indicate variations in packaging or plating thickness.

Headers, Male Pins Selection Notes

Select this component when a low-profile male header with a 2.54 mm pitch is required for 28-pin connections. Ensure the operating voltage does not exceed 60 V DC and the current load remains within 1.5 A. Verify that the PCB hole diameter accommodates the through-hole pins and that the soldering process is compatible with the specified insulation material.

Headers, Male Pins Part Context

This part belongs to the MK LP 240 series of male headers from Fischer Elektronik. The series offers various contact counts and row configurations while maintaining a consistent low-profile footprint. These components are designed for high-density electronic applications where vertical space is limited.

Headers, Male Pins Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes must match the 2.54 mm pitch, 2x28 contact configuration, and through-hole straight mounting style. Verify compatibility with PA46 insulation and gold-plated copper zinc contacts. Generic equivalents may differ in mechanical tolerances or thermal resistance.
