Headers, Male Pins Procurement Notes

Verify the complete part number including suffixes against official Fischer Elektronik documentation to confirm specific plating thickness and packaging details. Ensure compatibility with target PCB hole sizes and soldering profiles. Cross-reference datasheets for precise mechanical dimensions and thermal ratings before integration into final designs.

Headers, Male Pins Selection Notes

Select this component when a low-profile male header with gold contacts is required. Consider the 2.54 mm pitch and row configuration for board layout. Verify that the 1.5 A current rating and 60 V DC voltage limit meet circuit requirements. Check insulation material properties for high-temperature environments up to 163°C.

Headers, Male Pins Part Context

This part belongs to the Fischer Elektronik MK LP series of low-profile electronic components. The series includes various configurations such as MK LP 43 and other variants designed for different contact counts and pin arrangements. These headers are commonly used in compact electronic devices where vertical space is limited.

Headers, Male Pins Replacement Considerations

Consult Fischer Elektronik catalogs for direct substitutes within the MK LP series with matching pin counts and pitches. Verify mechanical fit and electrical ratings before substituting with generic equivalents. Ensure any replacement maintains the same contact finish and insulation material specifications.
