The Molex 44068-0276 is a 24-circuit vertical pin header from the SMC/BMI family, described as an 'MF SMC BMI VERT HDR W/CLIP 24CKT'. The 'clip' feature suggests a locking or retention mechanism for secure mating in vibration-prone or high-density board-to-board or wire-to-board applications. Vertical orientation means the pins stand perpendicular to the PCB — typical for mezzanine stacking or right-angle cable exit.
Compliance and Lifecycle Status
It is ROHS3 compliant, meeting the current EU exemption-free standard. The package is Box, which is typical for distributor stock of pin headers.
