It uses the standard 0.100" (2.54 mm) pitch on both the pin-to-pin and row spacing, making it footprint-compatible with a wide range of existing PCB layouts.
The 0.100" pitch matches the common breadboard-compatible grid, so board layout is straightforward — no tight routing constraints. 8 positions in two rows means the footprint occupies a 4-pin-per-row pattern; the mating half must be a dual-row receptacle with the same pitch and row spacing. The 5 A per contact rating is typical for signal and moderate power on this pitch; the UL94 V-0 housing is standard for enclosed equipment. Contact finish is gold or GXT™ at 30.0 µ" (0.76 µm) on the mating surface — this thickness supports repeated mating cycles and resists corrosion in controlled environments. The phosphor bronze base material provides good spring properties for consistent contact force.
