Contact Finish and Current Capacity
Because the header is unshrouded, natural convection around the pins helps with thermal management; in dense arrays or enclosed spaces, derate per the application current-temperature curve.
Through-hole right-angle mounting with 0.090" (2.29 mm) post length – the solder tail protrudes enough for a solid through-hole joint on standard 1.6 mm PCBs. The header is unshrouded, so the pins are exposed after mating – plan keep-out zones to avoid accidental shorting during handling.
