Additional Details:
The SM14B-GHS-TB connector is made from high-quality materials to ensure durability and long-term reliability. The housing is typically made from a heat-resistant resin that can withstand the high temperatures associated with reflow soldering. The contacts are made from a copper alloy with a tin plating to provide excellent conductivity and corrosion resistance. The GHS series connectors are designed to mate with JST's GH series crimp style housings and terminals. The connector is RoHS compliant, ensuring it meets environmental regulations. The 1.25mm pitch allows for a very compact board layout, which is crucial in small electronic devices. Proper soldering techniques are required to ensure a reliable connection to the PCB; refer to JST's documentation for recommended soldering profiles.
