4 way SMT r/a header

Molex PicoBlade Right-Angle PCB Header, 4 Way, 1 Row - 53261 Series - 53261-0471

This Molex right-angle PCB (printed circuit board) header lets you join up to four wires to your PCB. It can accommodate a maximum voltage of 125V and a maximum current of 1A per contact, making it a good choice for use in low-power applications. This header is solder-compatible, allowing you to ensure a highly secure connection to your PCB. Thanks to its right-angle design, it fits more easily into awkward areas or tight spaces than a straight header would.

Features & Benefits

• Compact 1.25mm pitch design saves space on your PCB
• Friction locking mechanism secures the header firmly in place and prevents disconnections due to heavy vibration
• Shrouded housing prevents contact damage and reduces interference for high-quality transmission
• Tin-plated phosphor bronze contacts are corrosion-resistant for long-lasting performance

Applications

• Security systems
• Telecommunications
• Medical equipment manufacturing
• Automotive industry

Can this PCB header withstand extreme temperatures?

Yes, this header is made of a high-temperature thermoplastic material that's resistant to heat for use at temperatures of up to +85°C. It can also withstand extremely cold temperatures as low as -40°C, making it a good choice for use in extreme environments.

Molex 1.25 mm PicoBlade PCB and SMT Header Connectors - 53047, 53048, 53261 and 53398 Series

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.

Features and Benefits

• 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)

Product Application Information

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.
