SL 10 SMD 078 10 Z SM

Headers, Male Pins Overview

The SL 10 SMD 078 10 Z SM is a board connector featuring ten male contacts arranged in a single row with a 2.54 mm pitch. Designed for surface mount installation, it utilizes tin-plated terminals to ensure reliable electrical connections. The component supports a staggered configuration and operates within a temperature range of -40°C to +163°C. It withstands reflow soldering conditions at 260°C for ten seconds. The suffix Z indicates tin plating, while SM denotes availability in bar magazine packaging.

Headers, Male Pins Feature Summary

• Surface mount terminal design for automated assembly processes
• Tin-plated contact finish for corrosion resistance
• Staggered pin configuration for optimized board space utilization
• High-temperature stability suitable for standard reflow profiles

Headers, Male Pins Applications

• General electronic equipment interconnects
• Industrial control system boards
• Consumer electronics assemblies

Headers, Male Pins Procurement Notes

Verify the specific packing option associated with the SM suffix against current distributor catalogs, as packaging formats may vary by region or production batch. Confirm that the tin-plated finish meets the required environmental compliance standards for the target application. Ensure compatibility with pick-and-place machinery specifications regarding component height and pad layout.

Headers, Male Pins Selection Notes

Choose this model when surface mounting is required for a ten-position connection with standard 2.54 mm spacing. The tin-plated variant offers cost-effective conductivity without gold plating. Consider the staggered layout if vertical clearance is limited but horizontal density is prioritized. Validate thermal resistance against the specific soldering profile used in the manufacturing line.

Headers, Male Pins Part Context

This part belongs to the Fischer Elektronik SL 10 SMD series, which provides surface mount pin headers for board-to-board and wire-to-board applications. The series offers various contact counts and plating options to suit different electrical and mechanical requirements. The SL 10 designation indicates a single-row configuration with specific dimensional constraints for compact PCB designs.

Headers, Male Pins Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include other Fischer Elektronik models from the SL 10 SMD family with matching contact counts and pitch. Cross-manufacturer replacements must verify identical 2.54 mm spacing, male pin type, and surface mount footprint dimensions to ensure mechanical fit.
