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.

Join electrical connections to your board using this PCB header from Molex. It's ideal for use in compact setups as it has a 1.25mm pitch, which saves up to 45% more space when compared to 2mm alternatives. The unit's a shrouded type, meaning its 5 pins are housed in a corrosion-resistant plastic casing for longevity. A wide operating temperature range of -40°C to +85°C means you can rely on it in harsh industrial environments.

• Voltage rating of 125V for wide compatibility
• Surface-mounting type for simple installation
• Solder terminals ensure a secure attachment to the PCB

• Automotive alarm systems
• Industrial process control
• Medical monitors

Yes, it has a friction lock feature to provide a secure mating connection and prevent accidents caused by mishandling.
