It uses the standard 0.100" (2.54mm) pitch on both the pin-to-pin and row spacing, making it a direct footprint match for a wide range of legacy and current board layouts. The mating finish is gold or GXT™ at 15.0 µin (0.38 µm) — a solid industrial-grade plating that handles repeated mating cycles without the contact fretting you see with bare tin on unshrouded pins.
The 0.100" pitch is the bread-and-butter spacing for BergStik-compatible ribbon cable IDC connectors and standard prototyping grids — if your board has a 0.100" header footprint, this drops in. The 46 positions are fully loaded across two rows, so the BOM line is a straight match for a 46-conductor cable assembly or a 46-pin mezzanine connection. The 5 A per contact rating is derated from the temperature rise of the UL94 V-0 black thermoplastic housing; in practice, keep total current per row under 20 A to stay within a 30°C rise above ambient. The 0.107" (2.71mm) solder post length is on the shorter side — it suits standard 0.062" PCBs but may not fully protrude through thicker boards; verify the board thickness against the post length before committing the layout.
