Stacking headers combine a female socket on top with extended male pins on the bottom, allowing you to stack multiple PCBs on top of each other. Solder the long pins through a board, then plug another board's female headers onto the pins below while connecting yet another board into the sockets above.
This pack of five 36-pin stacking headers gives you the flexibility to add stackability to custom boards, breakouts, or any project where you need to layer PCBs. Gold-plated contacts ensure reliable connections that resist oxidation.
Key Features
- Stacking Design – Female socket on top, extended male pins on the bottom for multi-board stacking
- 36-Pin Length – Easily cut down to any size you need
- 0.1" (2.54mm) Pitch – Standard spacing compatible with most development and breakout boards
- Gold-Plated Contacts – Resists oxidation for dependable connections
- Versatile – Works with breadboards, perfboards, and shield-style stacking
Ideal For
- Stacking custom PCBs or breakout boards
- Adding stackability to boards that don't have a dedicated stacking header kit
- Prototyping multi-board assemblies
Package Contents
- 5× 36-pin stacking headers (0.1" pitch)
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.
- Shield
- An add-on board that plugs into a main controller board to give it extra features such as sensing, motor control or communication. Knowing a product supports shields helps you judge whether it can connect neatly into an existing maker-board setup.
