1.0mm (.039”) pitch straight pin headers (also called vertical pin headers) are specialized connectors designed for board-to-board connections, allowing for efficient and reliable signal transmission. These headers are typically assembled to a printed circuit board (PCB) via through-hole technology and are suitable for carrying small currents. They come in various configurations including single, dual, triple, and quadruple rows, with the possibility of custom configurations upon request. The breakaway design allows for easy modification to suit specific needs by cutting the pin headers to the desired number of pins.
- Contact Configuration:
- Single row: 2-40 pins
- Dual row: 4-80 pins
- Customizable for three and four rows based on customer requirements.
- Breakaway Design:
- Typically in 1×40 pin format, which can be easily cut into smaller sections.
- Orientation:
- Vertical (Dual In-line Package – DIP) for easy integration into PCBs.
- Customization Options:
- Insulator height can be adjusted to match current requirements.
- Pin lengths can be modified to fit the distance between PCB boards.
- Materials:
- Metal Contacts: Made from copper alloy (either brass or phosphor bronze) for reliable conductivity.
- Insulator: Made from PBT UL 94V-0 or custom materials for robust and flame-retardant performance.
Compatibility
These pin headers are generally mated with receptacle or stackable header connectors (female sockets) which are available in various configurations:
- Vertical Connectors: Ensures straightforward, perpendicular connections between PCBs.
- Right-Angle Connectors: Allows for parallel or right-angle connections, offering flexibility in PCB layout.
- SMT (Surface Mount Technology) Connectors: Suitable for applications where surface mounting is required, providing a compact and efficient solution.
These pin headers are versatile and can be used in various applications including:
- Electronic Devices: For internal connections between different PCB modules.
- Home Appliances: Ensuring secure and reliable electrical connections in household gadgets.
- Electrical Instruments: Providing robust signal transmission in measurement and testing devices.
- Automotive: Used in car navigation systems, LCD panels, and other automotive electronics.
- Lighting Industry: Connecting components in various lighting solutions.
Some of the commonly used configurations in the DIP version include pin headers with the following pin counts: 6, 8, 14, 16, 20, 24, and 28. These configurations cater to a wide range of applications, offering flexibility and adaptability in design.
1.0mm pitch straight pin headers are essential components in modern electronic design, providing reliable and customizable board-to-board connectivity solutions. Their ability to carry small currents, combined with their customizable features and robust materials, make them ideal for a variety of applications in electronics, automotive, and lighting industries.
