SL 10 SMD 078 13 S B SM

Headers, Male Pins Overview

The SL 10 SMD 078 13 S B SM is a surface mount board connector from Fischer Elektronik. It features a male header configuration with 13 positions and a 2.54 mm (0.100 inch) pitch. The component utilizes a staggered contact arrangement for efficient space utilization. Contact surfaces are selectively gold-plated to ensure reliable electrical performance. The connector is designed for straight surface mount installation on printed circuit boards.

Headers, Male Pins Feature Summary

• Staggered contact configuration for compact layout
• Selective gold plating on contact surfaces
• Straight surface mount terminal design

Headers, Male Pins Applications

• Board-to-board interconnections
• Wire-to-board connections
• General electronic assembly requiring surface mount headers

Headers, Male Pins Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix 'S' indicates selective gold plating rather than tin or other finishes. Confirm that the 'B SM' designation matches the required pick-and-place pad and bar magazine packaging format for automated assembly processes. Ensure the 13-position count aligns with the schematic requirements.

Headers, Male Pins Selection Notes

Select this component when a low-profile, staggered male header is required for surface mount technology. The 2.54 mm pitch is standard for general-purpose interconnects. Verify that the PCB footprint accommodates the staggered pin pattern and that the mounting orientation supports straight insertion.

Headers, Male Pins Part Context

This part belongs to the SL 10 SMD series of male headers manufactured by Fischer Elektronik. The series offers various contact counts and dimension options. The SL 10 SMD line is characterized by its ability to support both manual and automated assembly methods through different packaging configurations.

Headers, Male Pins Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes within the same series include SL 10 SMD variants with different contact counts such as SL 10 SMD 062 or SL 10 SMD 104. Cross-series replacements like SL 11 SMD may require footprint verification due to potential differences in row configuration or insulation height.
