What this 9-position right-angle header does on the board
The 796638-9 is a 9-position, single-level header from the Termi-Blok, Buchanan series. Rated 15 A at 300 V per UL, with tin-plated copper alloy contacts. The shrouded (4 side) housing protects the pins from accidental shorting during handling.
Pitch, current, and the 5.08 mm footprint
The contact tail length of 0.138" (3.50 mm) is long enough for standard 1.6 mm PCBs with through-hole solder.
