A compact 1.27 mm (0.05") pitch 2×5 mini SWD box header with a half-shroud and key-notch. A smaller alternative to full-shroud SWD headers, taking up much less board space while remaining compatible with standard 10-pin 1.27 mm IDC (SWD) cables.
Commonly found on ARM Cortex development kits, this connector is ideal for adding SWD debug and programming capabilities to compact boards. The SMT pins can also be straightened for through-hole soldering if needed.
Key Features
- 1.27 mm (0.05") Pitch – 2×5 pin configuration
- Half-Shroud Design – Keyed notch for correct cable orientation
- SMT Mounting – Surface-mount with option to straighten pins for through-hole
- Compact Footprint – Significantly smaller than full-shroud SWD headers
Ideal For
- Adding SWD debug/programming to Adafruit nRF52 Feather and similar boards
- ARM Cortex development and debugging
- Space-constrained PCB designs requiring SWD access
Package Contents
- 1× Mini SWD 10-pin SMT box header
Jargon buster
Plain-language definitions for the technical terms used above.
- 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.
- SWD
- Serial Wire Debug (SWD) is a two-wire programming and debugging interface used with many ARM Cortex-M microcontrollers. It provides low-level access to program, recover or debug the microcontroller.
- 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.
