Product details

8-position SMT header with latch lock

What the 1.5A and latch lock mean for your build

The 1.5A current rating per contact is typical for signal-level interconnects — don't plan to push power through this header.

This header mates with Micro-MaTch female receptacles (cable or board-mount) that share the same 2.54mm pitch and latch lock interface. Termination is solder-only — surface mount for the header side, crimp or solder for the receptacle side depending on the mating part. The 8 positions are all loaded; no unpopulated slots.

Frequently asked questions

What is the mating connector for 338728-8?

The 338728-8 mates with Micro-MaTch female receptacles — either cable-mount or board-mount versions, both with the same 2.54mm pitch and latch lock. The exact mating part number depends on your wire gauge or board configuration; check the series drawing for the specific receptacle order code.

Can 338728-8 be used for wire-to-board connections?

Yes, the style is listed as Board to Board or Cable. When paired with a Micro-MaTch cable-mount receptacle and crimp terminals, it functions as a wire-to-board interconnect. The latch lock holds the cable assembly securely.
