The S12B-XASK-1 is a 12-position, single-row header on 2.50 mm pitch from JST's XA series.
3 A per circuit – signal-level current ceiling
The tin-plated mating surface keeps contact resistance low for intermittent mating cycles but isn't rated for the high-cycle duty of gold-plated connectors.
Board lock and press-fit termination
Insulation height of 0.299" leaves clearance under the shroud.
Peer comparison: 11 vs 13 positions
The XA series includes S11B-XASK-1 (11 positions) and S13B-XASK-1 (13 positions) with identical pitch, current rating, locking ramp, and board lock. The only difference is circuit count — choose the one that matches your wire-count exactly; the footprint scales one position per 2.50 mm.
