5.08mm Pin Headers and Sockets

Filter

• Pitch
  Distance between connector pin centrelines. For dual row products pitch defines distance between both pins and rows. Note 0.8 x 1.2mm (0.31” x .047”) is the exception to this rule.

  • 5.08mm3
• Gender
  Male headers with exposed pins and female sockets with insulated non-exposed contacts.

  • Header2
  • Socket1
• Mount Type
  Termination method of soldering connector onto PCB.

  • Surface mount3
  • Through hole
• PCB Orientation
  Defines the orientation which a connector sits on the PCB. Vertical (straight) is 90° to the PCB, right angle (horizontal) is 180° to the PCB. Use the appropriate mating connector pairs for parallel, co-planar and right angle PCB mating configuration.

  • Right angle
  • Straight3
  • U-Shaped
• Number Of Rows
  Defines PCB connector number of rows. GCT offer single in line (SIL), dual in line (DIL), triple in line (three rows) and quad in line (four rows) options.

  • Triple
  • Quad
• Elevated?
  Products which achieve a greater space between PCB’s, normally used in parallel PCB stacking applications to achieve a desired height. Elevated headers normally have two insulators, while elevated sockets use an insulator block and modular insulator extenders.

  • Yes1
• Socket Entry Type
  Searches female connectors only and displays whether header pins may enter from above (top entry), from below with appropriate holes in PCB (bottom entry) or from both above and below (dual entry). See drawings for details of PCB layouts required for bottom entry connector mating.

• Locating Peg
  Plastic locating pegs to hold the connector in place during solder process and may provide extra strength post soldering. Also known as plastic post.

  • With
  • Without3
• Profile
  The profile of connectors above the PCB. Vertical connectors denote the stacking profile in parallel PCB applications, right angle connectors denotes height above the PCB.

  • Over 5.00mm2
• Insulator Colour
  Standard board to board connector range is black, white insulators used for White Lite range for Solid State Lighting (SSL) applications.

  • Black3
  • Natural
• Header Square Pin Size
  Displays the size of the header square pin/post, as connector pitch reduces sq. post size reduces too, one reason for lower current carrying capability of smaller pitch PCB connectors. Note: Two options in 1.27mm (.050”) pitch. Female sockets clearly state which header square pin size they mate with.
