MK LP 242 90 Z

Headers, Male Pins Overview

The MK LP 242 90 Z is a male pin header connector manufactured by Fischer Elektronik. It features a through-hole mounting style with a 90-degree right-angle orientation. The connector provides 90 positions arranged in two rows, utilizing a 2.54 mm (0.100 inch) pitch. The contact surfaces are tin-plated to ensure reliable electrical connections and resistance to corrosion.

Headers, Male Pins Feature Summary

• Low profile design for space-constrained applications
• Tin-plated contact surface for reliable connectivity
• Right-angle configuration for board-to-board or wire-to-board connections

Headers, Male Pins Applications

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

Headers, Male Pins Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'Z' against the manufacturer's current datasheet to confirm exact packaging or tape-and-reel specifications. Ensure the required contact plating thickness aligns with your environmental requirements. Confirm that the 90-position count matches your PCB footprint design before ordering.

Headers, Male Pins Selection Notes

Select this component when a low-profile, right-angle male header is required for high-density connections. The 2.54 mm pitch ensures compatibility with standard PCB spacing. Consider the tin-plated finish for general-purpose reliability. Verify mechanical clearance for the 90-degree angle during PCB layout.

Headers, Male Pins Part Context

This part belongs to Fischer Elektronik's MK LP series of male pin headers. The series is characterized by low-profile construction and robust tin-plated contacts. These connectors are designed for durable performance in various electronic assemblies requiring secure board-to-board or wire-to-board interfaces.

Headers, Male Pins Replacement Considerations

Compatible substitutes include other Fischer Elektronik male headers with identical 2.54 mm pitch, 90 positions, and right-angle orientation. Ensure any replacement maintains the same low-profile height and tin-plated contact specifications to guarantee mechanical and electrical interchangeability.
