What this 6-position receptacle is for
The 535541-4: Through-hole solder termination keeps the connection stable on the PCB, while the push-pull fastening allows quick mating and unmating without tools. The gold-plated mating surface (30 µinch) handles repeated connect-disconnect cycles in signal-level circuits, and the wide temperature range from -65°C to 125°C suits industrial or outdoor enclosures.
The 0.100" pitch sets the PCB footprint: a standard 2.54 mm grid, compatible with many through-hole header strips and prototyping boards. Insulation height of 0.265" (6.73 mm) gives clearance above the board for routing traces under the connector body.
What mates with this receptacle
The push-pull latch holds the pair together under light vibration; for higher retention, consider a header with locking ramp if the application demands it.
