- Description:
- A male header pin is a versatile connector component featuring protruding pins designed to mate with female header pins, facilitating secure and reliable electrical connections between PCBs, modules, and peripheral components in electronic assemblies.
- Available in various pin counts and pitches, these connectors accommodate different board-to-board connections and module integration requirements, offering compatibility with a wide range of electronic systems and architectures.
- Male header pins are commonly used in hobbyist projects, prototyping environments, and commercial products for interfacing with microcontrollers, sensors, display modules, and expansion boards, enabling seamless connectivity and communication between different electronic components.
- Constructed from durable materials such as brass, phosphor bronze, or gold-plated contacts, and thermoplastic insulators, these header pins ensure reliable electrical connections and mechanical stability, even in demanding operating conditions.
- Available in through-hole and surface mount (SMD) variants, male header pins cater to diverse PCB mounting preferences and manufacturing processes, providing designers and engineers with flexible options for PCB layout and assembly.
