MK LP 40 11 Z

Headers, Male Pins Overview

The MK LP 40 11 Z is a male pin header from Fischer Elektronik, designed for board-to-board and wire-to-board connections. It features a 2.54 mm pitch with 11 contacts in a single row configuration. The component utilizes through-hole straight mounting and operates within a temperature range of -40°C to 163°C. Electrical specifications include a rated voltage of 60 V and a current capacity of 1.5 A. The contact finish is tin-plated copper zinc, supported by polyamide insulation.

Headers, Male Pins Feature Summary

• Low profile design optimized for space-constrained electronic assemblies
• Tin-plated contact surface ensures reliable electrical connection and oxidation resistance
• Polyamide insulation material provides thermal stability and mechanical support

Headers, Male Pins Applications

• Board-to-board interconnections
• Wire-to-board connections
• General PCB header applications

Headers, Male Pins Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix 'Z' against official Fischer Elektronik documentation to confirm exact contact count and pin configuration. Ensure compatibility with standard 2.54 mm pitch footprints on target PCBs. Cross-reference the tin plating specification with environmental requirements for soldering processes. Confirm that the 1.5 A current rating meets the application's electrical load demands without exceeding thermal limits.

Headers, Male Pins Selection Notes

Select this component when a low-profile male header is required for direct PCB mating or wire attachment. The 11-contact single-row layout suits interfaces needing moderate density. Verify that the through-hole mounting style aligns with the manufacturing process. Consider the operating temperature range if the environment exceeds standard commercial limits. Ensure the tin finish is suitable for the intended soldering method and long-term exposure conditions.

Headers, Male Pins Part Context

This part belongs to the MK LP 40 series of low-profile pin headers manufactured by Fischer Elektronik. The series is characterized by its compact height and robust construction using glass-filled polyamide insulation. These headers are engineered for reliable performance in various electronic devices requiring secure board-to-board or wire-to-board connectivity.

Headers, Male Pins Replacement Considerations

Compatible substitutes must match the 2.54 mm pitch, 11-pin count, single-row male configuration, and through-hole straight mounting style. Verify that alternative components offer equivalent 60 V / 1.5 A ratings and similar tin-plated contact finishes. Ensure the replacement maintains the low-profile form factor and compatible insulation material properties.
