Micro-Fit 3.0 3mm pitch wire to board single row PCB headers which form part of a compact power connector system providing a low to mid-range power distribution solution. With the ability to carry up to 5A of current, Micro-Fit 3.0 connectors have one of the highest current carrying abilities in the smallest footprints available. These Micro-Fit 3.0 PCB headers incorporate positive latching in the form of a locking ramp on the housing for secure mating and to prevent accidental disconnection. The housings are made of high-temperature UL 94V-0 Liquid Crystal Polymer that can withstand temperatures of up to 265°C during the IR reflow soldering process. The through hole mounting versions of these Micro-Fit 3.0 headers are also SMT compatible which means a reduction in process requirements and costs. To secure these Micro-Fit 3.0 headers to the PCB board, snap-in plastic peg PCB locks are incorporated into the connector design. The contacts of these Micro-Fit 3.0 headers are fully isolated within the housings to reduce arcing. Tin or a choice of two thicknesses of gold contact platings are available to keep down costs

Keen to connect your components in a flash? Choose this two-way PCB header from Molex to link accessories such as sensors, displays or communication devices to your board. A locking ramp ensures modules are attached securely and there's no risk of accidental detachment that could cause a glitch in your system. Flame-retardant liquid crystal polymer housing means this unit can handle extreme temperatures of up to +265°C during IR reflow soldering without breaking a sweat.

• Brass contacts resist corrosion and wear to deliver long-term service
• Plastic peg PCB locks make installation speedy
• 5A current rating ensures seamless compatibility with standard components

• Renewable energy generation
• Transportation systems
• Consumer electronics

Installation is a matter of just slotting the header's pins through corresponding holes on your board and soldering them in place.
