SL 1 078 3 Z

Headers, Male Pins Overview

The SL 1 078 3 Z is a male header connector from the Fischer Elektronik SL series, designed for through-hole PCB mounting. It features a single row of three contacts with a 2.54 mm (0.100 inch) pitch. The contact surfaces are tin-plated to ensure reliable conductivity and corrosion resistance. The component has an insertion depth of 5.80 mm into the PCB, with a total pin length of approximately 7.8 mm. This straight-mount configuration provides a compact footprint suitable for dense circuit layouts.

Headers, Male Pins Feature Summary

• Single-row male header configuration for board-to-board or cable connections
• Tin-plated contact surfaces for standard signal transmission
• Through-hole mounting style ensuring secure mechanical attachment

Headers, Male Pins Applications

• General-purpose electronic interconnects
• Prototype development boards
• Compact consumer electronics assemblies

Headers, Male Pins Procurement Notes

Verify that the 'Z' suffix denotes tin plating as specified in official datasheets. Confirm the three-position count matches design requirements. Ensure compatibility with standard 2.54 mm mating connectors. Check RoHS compliance status if required by project specifications.

Headers, Male Pins Selection Notes

Select this part for applications requiring a low-profile, single-row connection. The tin finish is suitable for non-high-frequency signals. Consider gold-plated variants if higher durability or oxidation resistance is needed. Verify PCB hole dimensions align with the 2.54 mm pitch.

Headers, Male Pins Part Context

This component belongs to the SL 1 series of Fischer Elektronik headers. These are precision-engineered connectors known for their compact dimensions and reliability. The series offers various pole counts and plating options to suit different electrical and mechanical needs.

Headers, Male Pins Replacement Considerations

Compatible substitutes include other 3-pin, 2.54 mm pitch male headers from Fischer Elektronik such as SL 1 078 2 G. Generic equivalents from other manufacturers must match the pitch, row count, and mounting type.
