A Male Header (also called male pin header) is a simple type of electrical connector widely used in electronics for making connections between circuit boards, sensors, and modules. It consists of straight metal pins arranged in a single or double row, which can be soldered onto a PCB or used with female headers and jumper wires.
🔹 Details and Explanation
Structure: A strip of metal pins mounted on a plastic base.
Pin Spacing (Pitch): Most common is 2.54 mm (0.1 inch), compatible with breadboards and Arduino boards.
Pin Variants:
Single row / Double row
Straight (vertical) / Right-angled
Breakable headers (can be cut to desired pin count)
Current Rating: Usually around 1A per pin.
Mounting Type: Through-hole (soldered into PCB) or Surface-mount.
🔹 Working Principle
Male headers act as pins for connection.
They are inserted into female headers, jumper wires, or connectors to establish an electrical connection.
Provide a modular way to connect sensors, displays, and modules without permanent soldering.
🔹 Applications
Arduino and Raspberry Pi shields (stacking connections).
Breadboard and jumper wire connections.
Connecting sensors, LCDs, and modules.
Robotics and IoT circuits.
Power and signal connections in PCBs
