C-Grid III Single Row Straight Pin Header

Category: Connectors, Electronics, Molex

Overview

The datasheet provides technical specifications for the C-Grid III Single Row Straight Pin Header, a product manufactured by Molex Incorporated. It highlights various options for pin finishes, recommended Printed Circuit Board (PCB) thickness, and design tolerances. The datasheet also mentions that it contains proprietary information.

Specifications

A series of pin headers with different dimensions are listed. Dimensions are provided for both metric and imperial units, indicating compatibility with diverse manufacturing standards. The pin headers vary in number of circuits from 2 to 40, and they support a recommended 1.6mm PCB thickness. Additionally, they are designed to be used with finish options that comply with the product specification PS-99020-0001, a likely reference to the material composition or plating standard.

Materials

Further details reveal that the pin header’s wafer is made of a 5% glass-filled polyester rated to UL 94V-0, pointing to its flame resistance properties, and that it comes in black color.

Dimensions and Tolerances

Various measurements are included on the header, using a combination of alphanumeric codes to indicate different sizes and spacings, such as “A” D/M and “B” (3845 S/ZE. The datasheet denotes general tolerances for the PCB hole patterns and includes notations for gold plating extents.

Drawing and Revision Information

The datasheet references sheets 1 to 6 for additional details on finish options, dimensions, and the assembly numbers’ notes. The drawing also includes Molex’s part number, document number, and the sheet number (2 out of 2), which suggests that this datasheet is the second page of a two-page document. The datasheet marks a revision date and includes the designer’s and reviewer’s names along with the date of design and review.

Proprietary Notice

A note emphasizes the proprietary nature of the drawing and stipulates that it should not be used without the written permission of Molex Incorporated.
