1.27mm Pitch, 10-Position Shrouded Header for Cable-to-Board
The 20021512-00010T4LF: This is a 10-position, 2-row header from the Minitek127® 20021512 series, with a 0.050" (1.27mm) pitch on both the row and position spacing. The post length of 0.091" (2.30mm) is short — confirm the PCB thickness and solder joint clearance during layout.
Board Layout and Routing Constraints
The 1.27mm pitch on both rows means the PCB footprint requires tight trace routing between pads — a 2-layer board can handle it, but the via fan-out for inner rows may need necking down to 0.20mm traces. The insulation height of 0.201" (5.10mm) above the board surface sets the keep-out zone for nearby components on the top side.
Comparing 10-Position vs 20-Position Sibling
The 20-position variant 20021512-00020T4LF shares the same 1.27mm pitch, right-angle orientation, gold plating, and shrouded 4-wall design. If your BOM requires more I/O on the same footprint, the 20-position version is a drop-in replacement on the same row spacing — just a longer header.
