Right angled male header
The Right-Angled Male Header is a versatile connector used for making reliable connections on printed circuit boards (PCBs). Its right-angle design allows for a low-profile connection, making it ideal for applications where vertical space is limited. This header is commonly used in various electronics projects, prototyping, and development applications, providing a sturdy and secure connection.
Key Features:
- Right-angled design for low-profile connections
- Available in various pin counts (e.g., 2 to 40 pins)
- Standard 2.54mm (0.1 inch) pin pitch
- Gold-plated or tin-plated contacts for excellent conductivity and corrosion resistance
- Durable plastic housing for secure pin alignment
- Easy to solder onto PCBs
- Compatible with female headers, jumper wires, and other connectors
- Pin Count: 2 to 40 (varies by model)
- Pin Pitch: 2.54mm (0.1 inch)
- Pin Length: 6mm to 12mm (varies by model)
- Contact Material: Gold-plated or tin-plated brass
- Housing Material: High-temperature thermoplastic
- Operating Temperature Range: -40°C to +105°C
- Current Rating: Typically up to 3A per pin
- Voltage Rating: Typically up to 250V
- PCB connections in electronics projects
- Prototyping and development
- Interfacing with microcontrollers and development boards
- Connecting peripherals and modules
- Creating custom wiring harnesses
- Align the right-angled male header with the corresponding holes on the PCB.
- Insert the header pins into the PCB holes.
- Solder the pins to the PCB, ensuring proper connection.
- Connect the female header, jumper wires, or other connectors to the male header pins.
- Ensure proper alignment of the header with the PCB holes before soldering.
- Handle with care to avoid bending or damaging the pins.
- Verify all connections before powering the circuit.
