AMPMODU HV-100 Series, Headers, Receptacles, Female Sockets

This type of header (receptacle) contains female sockets within a plastic housing and is meant to be mated with a rectangular cable connector or a male pin header for board-to-board connection. These come in a variety of position and pitch options, with some having a breakaway option to manually change position count with ease. Mounting types include panel mount, board edge, stacking, surface mount, and through-hole. 2023/11/28 16:50:32 Female socket headers, also known as receptacle connectors, are designed with female sockets housed within a plastic housing. They are intended to be mated with rectangular cable connectors or male pin headers to facilitate board-to-board connections. These connectors are available in a variety of position and pitch options, with some featuring a breakaway design that allows for easy manual adjustment of the position count. Mounting options for female socket headers include panel mount, board edge, stacking, surface mount, and through-hole. Panel mount connectors are suitable for installation on a flat surface, while board edge connectors are specifically designed to be inserted into the edge of a PCB. Stacking connectors are used to vertically stack multiple PCBs, providing a compact and space-saving solution. Surface mount connectors are directly mounted onto the surface of the PCB using soldering techniques, and through-hole connectors require the PCB to have pre-drilled holes for insertion. In summary, female socket headers offer a versatile and reliable solution for establishing board-to-board connections. With various position and pitch options, including breakaway designs for customization, these connectors cater to diverse application requirements. The availability of different mounting types further enhances their adaptability to specific design needs, ensuring efficient and secure connections within electronic systems and devices.
