MK LP 242 32 G

Headers, Male Pins Overview

The Fischer Elektronik MK LP 242 32 G is a male pin header connector designed for through-hole mounting. It features a 2-row configuration with 32 total positions, providing a pitch of 0.100 inches (2.54 mm). The component supports a voltage rating of 60 VDC and a current rating of 1.5 A. Constructed with tin-plated contacts and Ni+46µm Sn contact sleeves, it ensures reliable electrical performance in board-to-board or wire-to-board applications.

Headers, Male Pins Feature Summary

• Low profile design suitable for space-constrained electronic assemblies
• Tin-plated contact surface with nickel underplating for corrosion resistance
• Through-hole mounting style for secure PCB attachment

Headers, Male Pins Applications

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

Headers, Male Pins Procurement Notes

Verify the specific part number suffix to confirm row count and position quantity. Ensure compatibility with standard 2.54 mm pitch footprints on printed circuit boards. Confirm that the through-hole mounting method aligns with the manufacturing process requirements for the target assembly.

Headers, Male Pins Selection Notes

Select this component when a low-profile, two-row male header is required for 32-position connectivity. The 1.5 A current rating and 60 VDC voltage limit define the operational boundaries. Consider the through-hole technology constraints and the physical height limitations imposed by the low-profile form factor during mechanical integration.

Headers, Male Pins Part Context

This component belongs to the Fischer Elektronik MK LP series of male pin headers. The series offers various position counts and row configurations while maintaining a consistent 2.54 mm pitch. These connectors are engineered for general-purpose electronic applications requiring robust mechanical and electrical connections.

Headers, Male Pins Replacement Considerations

Compatible substitutes must match the 2.54 mm pitch, 2-row layout, and 32-position count. Verify that alternative parts support the same 60 VDC and 1.5 A ratings. Ensure the replacement maintains the through-hole mounting style and low-profile dimensions for proper fit.
