The JST 06SUR-32S is a 6-position, single-row receptacle from the SUR series, terminated via IDC to 32 AWG discrete wire. The 0.031" (0.80 mm) pitch is tight enough to keep the ribbon compact — expect the board footprint to match that spacing exactly, with no room for routing between pads. The housing is natural (unpigmented) nylon, and the closed-end feature means the ribbon stops at the back wall of the connector, preventing over-insertion into the IDC slot. It mates with the matching SUR series header (male pin, same pitch) to form a wire-to-board interconnect for fine-pitch ribbon cable harnesses. Typical use is inside consumer electronics, medical monitors, or industrial sensors where 32 AWG signal wires need a reliable, low-cost disconnect point.
Pitch, Wire Gauge, and Termination — The Fit Decision
The 0.80 mm pitch is shared across SUR-32S variants (3, 4, 6, 8 positions), so the board layout stays consistent across position counts. The tin contact finish is adequate for low-cycle applications — think one-time assembly or occasional service disconnect.
