Board Layout Fit — 2.54mm Pitch, 5 Positions
The 87220-5: The 0.100-inch (2.54mm) pitch sets the PCB footprint for a single-row header with five positions loaded — all positions are active, no empty slots. Unshrouded design means the male pins are exposed after soldering; the mating receptacle must align directly without a shroud wall to guide it. Through-hole termination with a 0.125-inch post length provides a solid solder joint for moderate cable strain, though the push-pull fastening type offers no secondary lock against vibration.
Current and Contact Life — 3 A with Gold Plating
Phosphor bronze contacts with gold flash on the solder tail balance cost and corrosion resistance in the unsealed environment.
ROHS3 compliant — no restricted substances in the plating or thermoplastic.
