This single-row, 16-pin straight female header with 0.1" (2.54mm) pitch is designed to mate with standard 0.1" male headers. It provides a reliable socket connection for board-to-board and board-to-wire applications.
The fixed 16-pin length makes it a good match for boards and breakout modules with 16-pin header interfaces. Standard 0.1" pitch ensures compatibility with breadboards, perfboards, and PCB footprints.
Key Features
- 1×16-Pin Single Row – Fixed-length female header
- Straight Orientation – Standard vertical mounting on PCBs and perfboards
- 0.1" (2.54mm) Pitch – Industry-standard spacing for broad compatibility
- Female Socket – Mates with standard 0.1" male header pins
Ideal For
- Socketing microcontroller and breakout boards
- Prototyping and breadboard projects
- Creating removable board-to-board connections
Package Contents
- 1× 1×16-pin straight female header
Jargon buster
Plain-language definitions for the technical terms used above.
- breakout
- A breakout is a small circuit board that makes a tiny or hard-to-solder component easier to connect to with standard pins. It matters because this OLED module can be wired into a microcontroller project without needing to solder directly to the display’s fine contacts.
- Headers
- Rows of metal pins used to plug a module into a breadboard or connect it with jumper wires. Pre-soldered headers make the module easier to use straight away without needing to solder the pins yourself.
- microcontroller
- A microcontroller is a small computer on a chip that runs your program and controls connected inputs and outputs. For this product, it is the part that reads buttons and sensors, drives the display and speaker, and communicates over Bluetooth.
- PCB
- A printed circuit board is a rigid board with copper tracks that connect electronic parts without loose wires. For this kit, the PCBs also form the airplane shape, so they are both the circuit base and part of the finished model.
