1.00 mm Pitch, 8-Position SMD Header — Board Footprint and Current Budget
The BM08B-SRSS-TB(LF)(SN): The 1 A per-contact rating means the total harness current budget is 8 A; derate if the ambient exceeds 85°C. In a tight enclosure, that 4.9 mm is the z-height budget — factor in the cable bend radius below the header.
Solder Retention and Shrouding — What They Mean for Assembly
The header includes solder retention features — small tabs on the sides that anchor the part to the board during reflow. This prevents the header from floating or tombstoning as the solder paste reflows, and it adds shear strength once the cable is mated and tugged. In a production harness line, this reduces the reject rate from bent pins.
The insulation material is polyamide (nylon), natural colour.
