MK LP 42 30 G

Headers, Male Pins Overview

The MK LP 42 30 G is a male pin header connector manufactured by Fischer Elektronik. It features a through-hole mounting style with 30 positions arranged in a single row. The connector utilizes a standard 0.100-inch (2.54 mm) pitch for compatibility with common PCB layouts. The contact material is specified as a CuZn alloy, ensuring mechanical stability and conductivity. The contact surface finish is gold-plated to provide reliable electrical performance and corrosion resistance over repeated mating cycles.

Headers, Male Pins Feature Summary

• Gold-plated contact surfaces ensure reliable electrical connections
• Through-hole mounting provides secure PCB attachment

Headers, Male Pins Applications

• General electronic equipment interconnections
• Industrial control systems
• Consumer electronics assemblies

Headers, Male Pins Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix 'G' corresponds to the required contact plating and housing color configuration. Confirm that the 30-position count matches the target circuit requirements. Ensure the through-hole footprint aligns with the PCB design specifications before procurement.

Headers, Male Pins Selection Notes

Select this component when a low-profile male header with gold contacts is required. The 2.54 mm pitch ensures compatibility with standard ribbon cables and mating connectors. Consider the CuZn alloy construction for robust mechanical handling during assembly.

Headers, Male Pins Part Context

This part belongs to the MK LP 42 series of low-profile male pin headers from Fischer Elektronik. The series offers various position counts while maintaining consistent pitch and mounting characteristics. The MK LP 42 30 G represents a specific variant within this family optimized for 30-pin interfaces.

Headers, Male Pins Replacement Considerations

Compatible substitutes include other Fischer Elektronik headers with identical 2.54 mm pitch and 30 positions, such as the MK LP 41 30 G or MK LP 40 series variants, provided contact plating and height specifications match.
