Header Set Low Profile 1×24

Complete set of M/F low profile headers for 48-pin MCUs like Teensy 4.1

DESCRIPTION

This is a full set of male/female low profile headers with standard 0.1″ spacing for 48-pin microcontrollers like the Teensy 4.1.

PACKAGE INCLUDES:

• Qty 2 – Header Male Low Profile 1×24, Breakaway Style
• Qty 2 – Header Female Low Profile 1×24

KEY FEATURES OF HEADER SET LOW PROFILE:

For the vertically challenged, we have these good quality low profile header sets available to reduce the stack-up height of socketed microcontrollers or other modules.  These are often used to minimize enclosure height or to position the MCU under something like an LCD for a more compact layout.

The female header body is 3.5mm (0.14″) tall and the contacts are gold flash.

The male header plastic body is 2.5mm (0.1″) tall and has 2.54mm (0.1″) long mating and solder pins.

When these headers are stacked, the combined height is 6.1mm (0.24″) to the bottom of the module.  This saves about 5mm (0.19″) in height over the standard height headers as illustrated in the picture.

Low Profile Header Comparison to Standard Header

When used with Teensy, the total stack-up from the baseboard to the top of the USB connector which is the highest point on the Teensy is 10.6mm.

Low Profile Header Stack-up with Teensy

The male headers are symmetrical and fully seat in the female header as shown below.  Even with a relatively short contact area, the headers mate with a solid mechanical and electrical connection.

Low Profile Header Set Breakaway

These headers are also available on all our Teensy 4.1 variations as an order option.  They are shipped with the male headers installed and the female headers loose in the bag.

Notes: 

• Due to the short mating pin length, these headers are not compatible with solderless breadboards.
