SL 10 SMD 040 4 Z B SM

Headers, Male Pins Overview

The SL 10 SMD 040 4 Z B SM is a surface mount male header connector from Fischer Elektronik. It features a 2.54 mm (0.100 inch) pitch with 4 contacts arranged in a single row. The connector utilizes tin-plated contacts for mating surfaces and termination, ensuring reliable electrical performance. Designed for board-to-board or wire-to-board applications, it operates within a temperature range of -40°C to +163°C. The housing is constructed from insulating material suitable for high-temperature soldering processes.

Headers, Male Pins Feature Summary

• Surface mount design for automated pick-and-place assembly
• Tin-plated contact surfaces for corrosion resistance
• Push-pull fastening mechanism for secure retention

Headers, Male Pins Applications

• Board-to-board interconnections
• Wire-to-board connections
• General electronic circuit assemblies

Headers, Male Pins Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix 'Z' confirms tin plating as distinct from gold ('G') variants. Ensure the 'B SM' designation matches the required bulk packaging format rather than tape and reel options. Confirm the 4-contact count aligns with the target PCB footprint requirements before finalizing procurement orders.

Headers, Male Pins Selection Notes

Select this component when a low-profile surface mount solution with a standard 2.54 mm pitch is required. Consider the tin-plated finish for cost-sensitive applications where gold plating is unnecessary. Verify that the single-row configuration fits the available board space constraints and mating height limitations of the system design.

Headers, Male Pins Part Context

This part belongs to the SL 10 SMD series of compact male headers. It shares the same 0.635 mm body width characteristic as other models in the family but differs in contact count and plating options. The series offers various pin configurations to accommodate diverse density requirements while maintaining consistent mounting dimensions.

Headers, Male Pins Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include other SL 10 SMD variants with identical pitch and row count but different plating, such as SL 10 SMD 040 4 G B SM for gold-plated contacts. Cross-brand replacements require matching the 2.54 mm pitch, 4-pin count, and surface mount terminal type to ensure mechanical compatibility.
