Female/Male Header 8 pin Pack of 5

The Female/Male Header 8 pin pack contains 5 single-row 8-pin headers with a female socket on one side and male pins on the other. This style of header is used to stack boards: the male pins pass through your board and plug into the board below, while the female socket on top accepts the next board, a module or jumper wires, so the signals carry straight through the stack.

Female/Male Header 8 pin Specifications

• Type: female/male stacking pin header
• Pins: 8, single row
• Pitch: 2.54 mm (0.1 in)
• Pack size: 5 pieces

Female/Male Header 8 pin Applications

• Building stackable Arduino Uno shields (the Uno R3 uses 8-pin headers for its D0–D7 and power rows)
• Stacking modules and boards on top of each other
• Making removable sockets for modules on perfboard
• Connecting jumper wires to a board that is stacked under another

What's in the Box

• 5 × 8-pin female/male headers

Tip: Solder the headers while the shield is plugged into the board below, such as an Arduino, so the pins stay straight and line up. Use short, quick joints so the plastic socket does not melt.
