5-Pin, 2.00 mm Pitch Breakaway Header for Board-to-Board Stacking
Surface Mount Termination and Pick-and-Place Ready
The Pick and Place feature indicates the header includes a vacuum pick-up area for automated assembly — no manual handling required during PCB population.
How It Compares to Similar AMPMODU Headers
Compared to the 1-1871673-2 (4-position, 2.50 mm pitch, shrouded, through-hole, right-angle), the 2842104-5 offers a finer 2.00 mm pitch for denser routing, but has fewer positions (5 vs 4) and lacks the shrouded wall and board lock for vibration-prone environments. The 2842104-5 is unshrouded and push-pull fastening, making it a lower-retention option for stable board stacks. Against the 1394090-1 (6-position, 2.85 mm pitch, shrouded, through-hole, right-angle, latch holder), the 2842104-5 is surface-mount and unshrouded, trading mechanical retention for a lower profile and automated assembly compatibility. The 1376779-2 (3 A, 250 VAC, through-hole, gold flash 8 µinch) carries a higher current rating and voltage, but its 8 µinch gold is thinner than the 30 µinch on the 2842104-5 — the 2842104-5 offers better corrosion resistance and mating cycle life for field-service applications.
