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

Need to securely link cables to your circuit board? Trust this PCB header from Molex to get a firm grip. It has three contacts arranged in a single row, so it's space-efficient, easy to handle and a neat way to achieve multi-circuit control. Brass contact material ensures you get reliable conductivity, while tin plating shrugs off corrosion to stand up to damp settings.

• Thermoplastic housing withstands impact, making it fit for harsh industrial environments
• Through-hole mounting gives you a secure, vibration-proof link to your circuit board
• Solder termination for quick and secure installation

• Security and surveillance systems
• Computer peripherals
• Medical equipment

The unit's low-halogen construction makes it environmentally safe as it won't emit toxic fumes in a fire.
