The 0.100″ (2.54 mm) 2×16-Pin Straight Female Header is a double-row, 32-pin socket strip designed to mate with standard 0.1″ pitch male headers. Its dual-row configuration makes it suitable for high-pin-count connections where board space is at a premium.
A 2×16 arrangement is commonly used for wide parallel bus interfaces, large breakout boards, and custom interconnects that require a dense pin layout.
Key Features
- 0.1″ (2.54 mm) Pitch – Industry-standard spacing compatible with perfboard and PCBs
- Straight Orientation – Mounts perpendicular to the PCB for standard vertical connections
- 2×16-Pin Configuration – Double-row, 32-position socket
- Through-Hole Mounting – Solders directly to standard PCBs
Ideal For
- Parallel bus and wide data interfaces
- Large breakout board connections
- Custom high-pin-count interconnects
- Prototyping and PCB design
Package Contents
- 1× 0.100″ (2.54 mm) 2×16-Pin Straight Female Header
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.
- 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.
- through-hole
- A mounting style where the component leads pass through holes in a circuit board and are soldered on the other side. Through-hole parts are often easier to handle and solder by hand, which is useful for classroom and hobby projects.
