3.96mm pitch, 3-position, shrouded header with locking ramp
The through-hole mounting with kinked, solder-terminated pins anchors the part securely to the board.
At 0.156" (3.96mm) pitch, this header occupies a wider footprint than the 2.50mm or 2.00mm pitch headers in the same category (e.g., the 1-2232960-3 at 2.50mm or the 1-292164-1 at 2.00mm). The wider pitch allows for larger-gauge wire and higher current capacity per circuit, though the exact current rating depends on the wire gauge used. With only 3 positions, this header is a compact power interconnect for low-circuit-count applications. All positions are loaded, so no blanking plugs are needed. The yellow insulation color provides quick visual identification on the board.
