Board-Layout Fit: 0.100" Pitch, 24 Positions, Right-Angle
Contact Interface: Gold GXT Mating, Tin Tails
In a board-to-board application cycled quarterly, that interface outlasts the product's service life. The dual-plating scheme — gold on the contact face, tin on the termination — is standard for headers that mate with a receptacle but see only one soldering event.
In a 24-position header carrying 3 A on every pin, the total current through the connector is 72 A, but the temperature rise is governed by the housing's thermoplastic and the board's copper pour.
RoHS compliance is assumed for the 24LF suffix (lead-free finish), but the specific directive status should be verified against the manufacturer's latest compliance document.
