What This Connector Is
Key Ratings and What They Mean
Pitch is 0.100 inch (2.54 mm). The 26-position dual-row configuration has 0.100-inch row spacing, so the mated pair sits at that grid — compatible with the BERGSTIK II family and other 0.100-inch pitch IDC ribbon connectors, card-edge fingers, and matching receptacles. Rated 5 A per circuit at 110 V — the current rating is per contact, consistent with the tin-plated square pin geometry. For a dual-row 26-position header the total bus current is not summed across all pins in the datasheet; the 5 A ceiling applies to each individual circuit, so a designer running power on several adjacent pins must check the combined thermal load at the connector interface rather than assuming the rating scales with position count. Post length is 0.120 inch (3.05 mm) from the housing face. Overall contact length is 0.990 inch (25.15 mm) with a 0.770-inch (19.56 mm) mating pin extension — this is a longer-pin variant suited for through-hole solder fill and multi-board stacking rather than a low-profile right-angle board edge.
