Standard Unshrouded Header Plug XG8 1
Standard Unshrouded Header Plug
XG8
Standard Plugs can be used in a wide
range of applications.
• The XG8 2 row plugs mates with different Omron 2 row Sockets:
XG4M Flat Cable Connector, XG4H Board to Board Connector
and XG5 Discrete-wire IDC Connector
• XG8A and XG8B Header / Plugs are sold in strips of 50 (single row)
or 100 (double row) terminals. Simply cut the strips to the desired
length / number of contacts.
• XG5Z-0002 Top Lock Levers (sold separately) ensure secure connec-
tion to Omron Sockets when used with double row, right-angle XG8W.
• RoHS Compliant

■Ratings and Characteristics
Note: 1. The rated current will depend on the Socket you are using.
It is 1A if using the XG4M and 3A if using XG5, for example.
2. The contact resistance is measured with the Plug mated to
an XG5M-N.
■Materials and Finish
Note: Two types of contacts and mating ends, one with gold plating and
the other with tin plating, are available. (XG8V and XG8W)

Accessories
■Top Lock Levers
XG5Z-0002 - “Lock Lever”
Can be used to lock XG8W Double-row Right-angle Terminal Plugs
to XG4M Flat Cables and XG5M-N Discrete-wire IDC Connectors.
(See XG4 and XG5 Datasheets).
They cannot be used with XG8W Double-row Straight Terminal Plugs.
Note: Order the above model in multiples of 10 pieces.
Mounting the Lock Lever
Insert the tab on the Lock Lever into the hole on a Socket with a
polarity guide. In this way, it can be locked with XG8W Right-angle
Terminal Plugs.
Precautions
■Correct Use
Dividing the XG8W (with Straight Terminals), XG8V,
XG8A, and XG8B
The above mentioned models may have the number of terminals and
rows reduced prior to pcb assembly, using the following method:
•Using a Cutter, make a cut on the slot as indicated by the dotted
line in the diagram. Then fold the Plug manually in the direction of
the arrows.
•XG8W’s with right-angle terminals are not designed to be divided in
this manner. Do not divide the XG8W with right-angle terminals.
Instead, use the XG8B Header Plug Strip with right-angle termi-
nals, if a double-row header plug with right-angle terminals must be
divided to reduce the number of terminal rows.
Automated Soldering Conditions (Jet Flow)
1. Soldering temperature: 250 ±5°C
2. Continuous soldering time: Within 5 s
