Molex PicoBlade Series Straight Surface PCB Header, 5 Contacts, 1.25 mm Pitch, 1 Row, Shrouded, 125V, 1A Current 53398-0571

Molex 53398-0571 PicoBlade Series Straight Surface PCB Header is a high-quality connector designed for space-constrained environments, featuring 5 contacts arranged in a single row with a compact 1.25 mm pitch and surface mount configuration. This header utilizes solder termination, providing robust mechanical retention and electrical reliability for circuit board connections. Its friction-locking mechanism ensures secure mating, reducing the risk of accidental disconnects.

The connector's housing is made of durable nylon and houses shrouded male phosphor bronze contacts with tin plating for excellent conductivity and resistance to fatigue. It operates reliably across a wide temperature range from -40°C to 105°C, making it suitable for demanding industrial and consumer electronic applications such as car alarms, DVD players, and medical monitoring equipment.

The compact PicoBlade design reduces space usage by up to 45% compared to standard 2 mm pitch connectors, allowing designers to maximize PCB real estate. Its current rating of 1A and voltage rating of 125V accommodate many low power applications.

Surface mount installation facilitates automated PCB assembly, improving production efficiency and reducing costs. The shrouded contacts add an extra level of protection against mishandling and short circuits, enhancing product reliability and safety in critical use cases.
