MK LP 40 5 Z

Headers, Male Pins Overview

The MK LP 40 5 Z is a male pin header connector from the Fischer Elektronik MK LP 40 series. It features a through-hole mounting style with five positions arranged in a single row. The contact pitch is 2.54 mm (0.100 inches). The component utilizes a tin-plated contact surface and a contact sleeve with Ni+46µm Sn plating to ensure reliable electrical connection and oxidation resistance.

Headers, Male Pins Feature Summary

• Low profile design for space-constrained applications
• Tin-plated contact surface ensures reliable electrical connection
• Contact sleeve features Ni+46µm Sn plating for oxidation resistance

Headers, Male Pins Applications

• Board-to-board connections
• Wire-to-board connections
• Through-hole PCB mounting

Headers, Male Pins Procurement Notes

Verify the specific part number MK LP 40 5 Z against official Fischer Elektronik documentation to confirm the five-position configuration and tin-plated specifications. Ensure compatibility with standard 2.54 mm pitch requirements. Check for RoHS compliance status if required by your manufacturing standards. Confirm that the low profile design meets your assembly height constraints.

Headers, Male Pins Selection Notes

Select this connector when a low-profile, five-position male header is required for through-hole applications. The 2.54 mm pitch is standard for many electronic assemblies. Consider the tin-plated contacts for general-purpose use where high corrosion resistance is not critical. Verify that the current and voltage ratings of the series meet the circuit requirements.

Headers, Male Pins Part Context

This component belongs to the MK LP 40 series of low-profile electronic connectors from Fischer Elektronik. The series is designed for board-to-board and wire-to-board applications using a through-hole mounting technique. The MK LP 40 line offers various position counts while maintaining a consistent 2.54 mm pitch and low profile characteristics suitable for dense PCB layouts.

Headers, Male Pins Replacement Considerations

Compatible substitutes must match the 2.54 mm pitch, five-position count, male pin type, and through-hole mounting style. Verify that alternative headers offer similar low-profile dimensions and tin-plated contact finishes to ensure mechanical and electrical compatibility within the assembly.
