MK LP 242 30 Z

Headers, Male Pins Overview

The MK LP 242 30 Z is a male pin header connector manufactured by Fischer Elektronik. It features a through-hole mounting style with a straight orientation. The connector provides 30 positions arranged in two rows, utilizing a 2.54 mm (0.100 inch) pitch. This component is designed for board-to-board and wire-to-board connections, ensuring reliable electrical contact in electronic assemblies.

Headers, Male Pins Feature Summary

• Through-hole mounting for secure PCB attachment
• Two-row configuration for increased contact density
• Standard 2.54 mm pitch for compatibility

Headers, Male Pins Applications

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

Headers, Male Pins Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix 'Z' against the manufacturer's official documentation to confirm plating type or material specifications. Ensure the required contact count matches the 30-position design. Cross-reference the datasheet for mechanical dimensions and thermal ratings before integration into the final product design.

Headers, Male Pins Selection Notes

Select this component when a 30-contact, two-row header is required for through-hole applications. Consider the 2.54 mm pitch standard for mating connector compatibility. Evaluate the mechanical stability provided by the through-hole design versus surface-mount alternatives based on vibration and stress requirements of the target environment.

Headers, Male Pins Part Context

This part belongs to the MK LP series from Fischer Elektronik, which specializes in various connector solutions. The series typically offers multiple position counts and row configurations to suit different density needs. Fischer Elektronik is a German manufacturer established in 1969, known for producing connectors and thermal management products.

Headers, Male Pins Replacement Considerations

Compatible substitutes include other Fischer Elektronik headers with identical 30-position, two-row, 2.54 mm pitch specifications, such as the MK LP 242 30 G, provided the termination and plating characteristics align with the design requirements.
