MK LP 40 37 Z

Headers, Male Pins Overview

The MK LP 40 37 Z is a male pin header connector from the Fischer Elektronik MK_LP_40 series. It features a single row with 37 positions and a pitch spacing of 2.54mm (0.100 inches). The component utilizes through-hole mounting for PCB integration. Contact surfaces are tin-plated, while the contact sleeve features Ni+46µm Sn plating. The operating temperature range is specified from -40°C to +163°C, with soldering resistance up to 260°C for 10 seconds.

Headers, Male Pins Feature Summary

• Low profile design suitable for space-constrained applications
• Tin-plated contact surface for reliable electrical connection
• Through-hole mounting method for secure PCB attachment

Headers, Male Pins Applications

• Board-to-Board connections
• Wire-to-Board interconnects
• General electronic circuit assembly

Headers, Male Pins Procurement Notes

Verify the specific plating configuration matches project requirements, as variants exist with gold or different tin thicknesses. Confirm the 37-position count aligns with the target footprint. Ensure the low-profile form factor fits within the mechanical envelope constraints of the final assembly. Check RoHS compliance status if required by local regulations.

Headers, Male Pins Selection Notes

Select this part when a low-profile, single-row header with 37 pins is needed. The 2.54mm pitch is standard for many legacy and modern systems. Consider the thermal limits (-40°C to +163°C) against environmental conditions. Compare against similar MK LP 40 series parts if different pin counts or plating options are preferred.

Headers, Male Pins Part Context

This component belongs to the Fischer Elektronik MK_LP_40 series, which specializes in low-profile electronic connectors. The brand offers extensive ranges of headers, sockets, and cable connectors for printed circuit boards. This series is designed for high-density applications requiring minimal vertical height while maintaining robust mechanical and electrical performance standards.

Headers, Male Pins Replacement Considerations

Compatible substitutes include other Fischer Elektronik headers with identical 37-pin counts and 2.54mm pitch, such as the MK LP 40 37 G variant, provided the plating difference is acceptable. Cross-reference with other manufacturers' low-profile headers ensuring matching dimensions and current ratings.
