Molex PicoBlade Series Straight Surface Mount PCB Header, 5 Contact(s), 1.25mm Pitch, 1 Row(s), Shrouded

PicoBlade PCB through hole and SMT mount header connectors with a compact design and a 1.25 mm pitch. These PicoBlade headers form part of a wire to board interconnection system that offers PCB space savings of up to 45% compared to 2.00 mm wire to board systems. The PicoBlade connector system is also able to provide the same 1 A current as similar 2.00 mm pitch connector systems. The housings of these PicoBlade headers have locking windows which engage with two latching ramps in the crimp housing to produce a friction locking mechanism. This friction lock provides a secure mating connection and prevents accidental unmating caused by mishandling or vibration. The SMT PicoBlade headers feature solder tabs that provide a secure retention on the PCB and act as a strain relief for the SMT solder tails. This feature also helps prevent solder joints form cracking due to mishandling. These 1.25 mm PicoBlade PCB and SMT headers are available in vertical and right angle mounting configurations.

• 1 A current capability in a compact 1.25 mm pitch design
• PCB space saving of up to 45% compared to 2.00 mm pitch
• Friction locking mechanism for secure mating connection
• Solder tabs for secure PCB retention (SMT versions)

The PicoBlade 1.25 mm interconnection system is designed for use in high density harness applications. Typical applications include automotive alarms systems and car audio, DVD players, industrial process controls and medical patient monitors.

When space is tight and you need a reliable wire-to-board connector for your circuit board, choose this PicoBlade Series PCB header from Molex. The compact design features a 1.25mm pitch and uses up to 45% less space than standard 2mm wire-to-board systems. For a reliable connection, solder tabs provide a secure join and offer strain relief for the solder tails to help prevent cracking. This means the header's ideally suited to applications using a high-density harness.

• Friction-locking mechanism offers a secure connection and prevents accidental unmating
• Phosphor-bronze contacts are highly conductive and fatigue-resistant for a long-lasting, reliable connection
• Operating temperature range of -40°C to +85°C for use in demanding environments

• Car alarms
• DVD players
• Medical monitors

The pins on this PCB header are shrouded. This means they're encased in a plastic housing, which offers additional protection against mishandling and short circuits.
