It uses the standard 0.100" (2.54 mm) pitch on both rows and between rows, making it footprint-compatible with a wide range of 0.100" grid receptacles and IDC connectors.
The 0.100" pitch is the de facto standard for prototyping and ribbon-cable interconnects — the footprint matches legacy BergStik and competing 0.100" grid headers. Tin plating at 150.0 µin (3.81 µm) on the mating surface is a thick, cost-effective finish. The 5 A per-contact rating is conservative for a 0.100" pin. Through-hole solder termination with a 0.120" (3.05 mm) post length fits standard PCBs. The overall contact length of 0.725" (18.42 mm) gives a 0.505" (12.83 mm) mating length. UL94 V-0 rated thermoplastic insulation and a -65°C to 130°C operating range cover industrial cabinet and outdoor telecom applications. The unshrouded design means no polarization keying — verify the mating receptacle orientation to avoid reverse insertion.
