Molex PicoBlade Series Right Angle Surface PCB Header, 6 Contact(s), 1.25 mm Pitch, 1 Row, Shrouded

Looking for a durable connection channel to link adapters to your printed circuit boards? Opt for this right-angle header from Molex. You solder it directly onto your circuit board to deliver a reliable and mechanically stable connection. Thanks to a high-temperature thermoplastic housing, the unit can withstand impact and extreme thermal conditions, so you can use it in harsh environments. Its phosphor-bronze contacts are highly conductive to ensure a robust link is maintained. With a 1A current rating, this header is an energy-efficient connection solution.

• Friction locking mechanism ensures a secure mating connection, for safe use in vibrating systems

• Electronics industry

This header is designed to be mounted directly onto the PCB surface. This method ensures space efficiency and reduced noise and vibration on your circuits.

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

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.
