BM08B-SURS-TF is an 8-position, single-row, surface-mount header from JST's SUR series. It mates with the SHR-08V-S housing and the corresponding SUR crimp terminals, making it a board-to-wire interconnect for signal-level circuits. The 0.80 mm pitch keeps the PCB footprint compact, but the 0.2A / 0.5A current rating means this is strictly a signal connector — not for power distribution. The 3.95 mm mated stack height sets the z-height budget; the mating housing must sit at that height above the board surface.
SMT assembly and solder retention
The header includes solder retention features that anchor it to the PCB during reflow, preventing the part from floating off the pads. The shrouded 4-wall design polarizes the mating interface and protects the contacts from handling damage — you should hear the housing click when it seats.
The part is listed as RoHS non-compliant; verify your assembly's exemption or waiver requirements before committing the line.
