2.0mm Pitch Female Headers

Female header always called as “Header connector”,  Scondar provide widely range of header connector, from 2.54mm (.100″ inch) pitch to 1.0mm (.039″ inch) pitch. The number of pins (contacts) is from 2 to 40 pins per orw. There are three type: Straight (Dip Vertical), Right angle, SMT (surface mount).

Applications of 2.0mm Pitch Female Headers

Electronics:

• LED applications
• Arduino boards
• Solar applications
• Weighing systems

Appliances:

• Air conditioner
• Refrigerator
• Microwave oven
• Washing machine
• Water heater
• Shower toilet
• Washer/Dryer
• Stove

Automotive, Heavy Duty Military and Marine

For densely packed equipment requiring weight reduction and downsizing and for tough and harsh conditions.

• Vehicle infotainment
• Computer peripherals

Battery Connections

Battery connections rely on the ability of the current to pass reliable and solid current. This prevents overheating in the circuit and voltage drop.

• Rechargeable battery packs
• Battery balancers
• Battery eliminator circuits

Medical Diagnostic and Monitoring equipment

• Heart monitors

Communications

• Telecoms
• Datacoms

Mount Type: Through-hole vs Surface Mount

At one side of this female header is a series of pins which can either be mounted and soldered directly onto the surface of the PCB (SMT) or placed into drilled holes on the PCB (THM).

Through-Hole (Poke-In)

• Best used for high-reliability products that require stronger connections between layers.
• Aerospace and military products are most likely to require this type of mounting as these products experience extreme accelerations, collisions, or high temperatures.
• Useful in test and prototyping applications that sometimes require manual adjustments and replacements.
• 2.0mm vertical single row female header, 2.0mm vertical dual row female header, 2.0mm right-angle single row female header and 2.0mm right-angle dual row female header are some examples of Scondar products with through-hole mount type.

Surface-Mount

• The most common electronic hardware requirements are SMT.
• Essential in PCB design and manufacturing, having improved the quality and performance of PCBs overall.
• Cost of processing and handling is reduced.
• SMT components can be mounted on both side of the board.
• Ability to fit a high number of small components on a PCB has allowed for much denser, higher performing, and smaller PCBs.
• 2.0mm Right-angle Dual Row female header, 2.0mm SMT Single row female header and 2.0mm SMT Dual row female header are Scondar’s SMT female headers.

Soldering Temperature for 2.0mm Pitch Female Headers

Soldering SMT female connectors can be done at a maximum peak temperature of 260°C for maximum 60 seconds.

Orientation/Pin-Type: Vertical (Straight) and Right-Angle

2.0mm pitch female headers may be further classified into pin orientation as well, such as vertical or straight male header or right-angle female header.

Vertical or Straight Female Header Orientation

• One side of the series of pins is connected to PCB board in which the pins can be at a right-angle to the PCB surface (usually called “straight” or “vertical”) or.

Right-Angle Female Header Orientation

• Parallel to the board’s surface (referred to as “right-angle” pins).

Each of these pin-types have different applications that fit with their specific configuration.

PCB Connector Stacking

For 2.0mm pitch female headers, the orientation is either offered as vertical or right-angle, which are options. Elevated sockets/female headers can be available upon request.

Profile Above PCB

• This type of configuration is the most common way of connecting board-to-board by a connector. First, the stacking height is calculated from one board to another and measured from the printed circuit board face to its highest insulator point above the PCB.

Elevated Sockets/Female Headers

• Elevated Sockets aka Stacked sockets/receptacles or Mezzanine are simply stacked female headers providing an exact distance requirement between PCBs that optimizes electrical reliability and performance between PCB boards.

Choosing this type of stacking configuration promotes the following benefits:

• Connector Isolation – the contacts are shrouded preventing cable connection mishaps and good guidance for the mating header connectors.
• For off-the-shelf wireless PCB module, stacking height is optimized with elevated sockets.
• Offers superior strength and rigidity.
• Polarisation prevents users from inverted insertion.

Single, Dual or Multiple Number of Rows

For a 2.0mm straight or vertical female header, the standard number of rows that Scondar offers ranges from 1 to 2 rows. However, customization can be available if 3, 4 or n number of rows is needed by the customer. Also, the number of contacts for the single row is about 2-40 pins while for dual row, the number contacts may vary from 2-80 pins.

Pin Material

The pins of the connector attached to the board have been designed with copper alloy. With customer’s demand the pins can be made gold plated.

Custom 2.0mm Pitch Female Headers

Customizable 2.0 mm pitch female headers are also available, making your manufacturing process way faster as the pins are already inserted in the headers, insulator height is made at the right size and the accurate pin length you require is followed. Parts are made using semi-automated manufacturing processes that ensure both precision and delicacy in handling the headers before packaging on tape and reel.

Tape and Reel Packaging for SMT Components

Scondar’s SMT headers are offered with customizable mating pin lengths, in which each series has multiple number of of circuits, summing up to a thousand individual part number combinations per connector series. The tape and reel carrier strip ensures that the headers are packaged within accurately sized cavities for its height, width and depth, securing the headers from the environment and maintaining consistent position during transportation. Scondar also offer a range of custom Tape and reel carrier strip packaging cavities.
