The 531230-3: The 0.200" (5.08mm) pitch sets the footprint — this shunt bridges two adjacent pins on a male header with the same spacing. Open-top design means the contact area is visible from above — useful for probing signals or visually confirming the shunt is fully seated on the header pins.
Current, Material, and Compliance
For a 2-position shunt, the total bridge current is 3A; derate if ambient exceeds the standard operating range.
Supplied by TE Connectivity AMP Connectors, part of the 531230 base series. The 2-position, 0.200" pitch, gold finish variant is the 531230-3.
