It carries 8 square male pins on a 0.100" (2.54mm) pitch, rated for 5 A per circuit at 110 V. The mating contacts are plated with 30 µ" (0.76 µm) gold, giving it good corrosion resistance and a solid mating cycle life for repeated connect-disconnect duty in test fixtures, programming jigs, or modular board stacks.
The 0.100" (2.54mm) pitch is the standard grid for legacy through-hole layouts and breadboard prototyping — any board with a matching 0.100" header footprint can take this part. The 5 A per circuit rating is typical for signal-level interconnects; at this pitch and pin cross-section, the current is limited more by the contact resistance and the UL94 V-0 housing's thermal rise than by the phosphor bronze pin itself.
