The Header, 2.54 mm, Through Hole, 16 Contacts from Samtec is designed for board-to-board applications with a pitch spacing of 2.54 mm. It features 16 contacts arranged in 2 rows, making it suitable for various electronic connections. The header is constructed with a black glass-filled polyester insulator and utilizes phosphor bronze for the terminals, which are available with either gold or tin plating over nickel. This product supports a voltage rating of up to 550 VAC when mated with specific connectors and has a current rating that varies depending on the mating connector, with values ranging from 4.3 A to 6.3 A per pin. The operating temperature range is from -55 ¬8C to +125 ¬8C with gold plating, and -55 ¬8C to +105 ¬8C with tin plating. The header is RoHS compliant and offers lead-free solderable options. Engineers should consider this header for applications requiring reliable electrical connections in a compact form factor, particularly in environments where temperature and voltage ratings are critical.
