Molex PicoBlade Series Straight Through Hole PCB Header, 4 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.

Looking for a reliable way to protect your wire-to-board connections? Choose this 4-way PCB (printed circuit board) header from Molex. Its friction-locking mechanism features two latching ramps that secure the connector in place, so it won't come loose in the event of mishandling or heavy machine vibrations. The tin-plated phosphor-bronze contacts are highly conductive and resistant to corrosion to ensure reliable performance. For added protection against dust and moisture, the header is fully shrouded.

• Designed for through-hole mounting for ease of installation
• Wide operating temperature range of -40°C to +80°C for use in a variety of demanding settings
• Compact pitch of 1.25mm to save space on crowded PCBs
• Compatible with the Molex PicoBlade series of connectors for creating space-efficient PCB set-ups
• Single-row design makes it simple to organise wires

• Industrial process control systems
• Stereo systems
• DVD players
• Automotive and security alarm systems

The header has an expected maximum lifespan of 30 mating cycles, making it a durable choice for repeated use.
