Product details

The through-hole termination uses press-fit solder tails, and the natural PA66 insulator is rated UL94 V-0. The tin-on-tin contact finish — both mating and post — suits applications where mating cycles are moderate and cost is a factor.

At 16 positions, this is the highest circuit count in the single-row XH header family — the B15B-XH-A carries 15 positions, one fewer. The 2.50mm pitch is wider than the 2.00mm or 1.25mm found on compact wire-to-board connectors, which means more board space per circuit but easier routing and less risk of solder bridges during hand assembly.

Frequently asked questions

What is the pin pitch of B16B-XH-A?

The mating pitch is 0.098" (2.50mm). This is the centre-to-centre spacing between adjacent pins.

Is B16B-XH-A RoHS compliant?

No, the B16B-XH-A is listed as RoHS non-compliant. For RoHS-compliant requirements, use the alternate MPN B16B-XH-A(LF)(SN).

What is the mating female housing for B16B-XH-A?

This header mates with JST XH series crimp housings, such as the XHP series. The detent lock on the header engages with the locking ramp on the housing for a secure connection.
