This single-row, 4-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 compact 4-pin length is commonly used for I2C, SPI, and sensor connections. Standard 0.1" pitch ensures compatibility with breadboards, perfboards, and PCB footprints.

Key Features

  • 1×4-Pin Single Row – Compact 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

  • I2C, SPI, and sensor connections
  • Socketing small breakout boards
  • Prototyping and breadboard projects

Package Contents

  • 1× 1×4-pin straight female header
Note: Order quantity must be a multiple of two.

Jargon buster

Plain-language definitions for the technical terms used above.

breakout
A breakout board carries a small or fine-pitched component and brings its connections out to standard, breadboard- and header-friendly pins. Describing a part as a breakout means it can be wired into a project without soldering directly to the component's tiny contacts.
Headers
Rows of connector contacts on a fixed pitch (commonly 2.54 mm) used to link a board to a breadboard, jumper wires, or another board. They come as male pin headers and female socket headers; when a module ships with pre-soldered headers it can be used straight away, whereas bare pads require soldering the pins yourself.
I2C
I2C is a two-wire communication bus used by many sensors and small modules. It matters because several I2C devices can share the same two wires, but each device needs a compatible address and your controller must support I2C.
PCB
A printed circuit board (PCB) is a board, usually rigid, with etched copper tracks that connect electronic components together without loose wiring. Components are mounted on the board and signals route between them through the copper layout.
SPI
A fast serial communication bus often used for displays, memory cards, and sensors. It matters because SPI devices need specific pins for clock and data, plus a separate chip-select line for each device.
