SL 10 SMD 078 18 G

Headers, Male Pins Overview

The SL 10 SMD 078 18 G is a board connector manufactured by Fischer Elektronik. It features 18 contacts arranged in a single row of male pins with a straight orientation for surface mount terminal installation. The component utilizes a 2.54 mm pitch spacing and incorporates a staggered configuration. Contact finishes are gold-plated on both mating and termination sides, ensuring reliable electrical performance.

Headers, Male Pins Feature Summary

• Surface mount design with straight male pin headers
• Gold-plated contact surfaces for enhanced conductivity
• Staggered pin configuration within a single row

Headers, Male Pins Applications

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

Headers, Male Pins Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix to confirm the contact finish and packaging type. Ensure the selected variant matches the required number of positions and mounting style. Confirm compliance with RoHS standards and check the datasheet for reflow soldering temperature profiles to guarantee process compatibility during manufacturing.

Headers, Male Pins Selection Notes

Select this connector when a surface mount male header with a 2.54 mm pitch is required. The gold plating offers superior corrosion resistance compared to tin variants. Consider the staggered layout for potential routing benefits. Verify that the straight orientation fits the mechanical constraints of the target PCB assembly.

Headers, Male Pins Part Context

This part belongs to the Fischer Elektronik SL 10 SMD series, which provides various configurations of surface mount pin headers. The series supports different contact counts and finishes, allowing designers to choose based on specific electrical and mechanical requirements for compact electronic assemblies.

Headers, Male Pins Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes must match the 2.54 mm pitch, 18-position count, single-row male format, and surface mount orientation. Gold-plated staggered headers from other manufacturers may serve as alternatives if mechanical dimensions and current ratings are verified against the original specifications.
