2.00mm Pitch Signal Jumper for Minitek Headers
The 86730-001LF is a 2-position open-top jumper from the Minitek® 2.00mm series, designed to short adjacent pins on a matching 0.079" (2.00mm) pitch header. The 1 A per-contact rating and 8.00µin gold finish suit it for signal-level configuration straps on boards where repeated mating is expected — the gold wipes the header pin on each insertion and resists oxidation better than tin in low-current circuits. The 0.138" (3.50mm) profile keeps the jumper low above the board surface, useful in mezzanine or card-edge assemblies where z-height is tight.
The 8.00µin gold over nickel on the contact face provides a corrosion-resistant mating interface rated for repeated insertion and removal. In a field-service or test-fixture application where the jumper is cycled monthly, this plating grade supports hundreds of matings before the gold wears through to the nickel underplate. For higher cycle counts, the sibling 86730-301LF carries 15.0µin gold — nearly double the thickness — and is a drop-in alternative on the same 2.00mm header footprint.
