Individual Pogo Pin
A single spring-loaded contact supplied for integration into the customer’s PCB, housing or connector structure.
Browse Individual Pogo Pins →Custom 16-pin pogo pin connector with an 8 × 2 dual-row spring-contact arrangement and straight PCB tails for through-hole style integration. The integrated housing maintains sixteen contact positions as one connector assembly, while each spring-loaded contact provides electrical connection and controlled Z-axis compliance. Contact pitch, PCB footprint, working stroke, pin assignment and electrical ratings are defined by the approved project drawing.
Determine whether the project needs a single spring-loaded contact, a multi-contact connector assembly, a specific mounting method or a customer-defined mechanical interface.

Submit Project Requirements →This 16-pin pogo pin connector integrates sixteen spring-loaded electrical contacts into an 8 × 2 dual-row housing with straight PCB tails. The architecture provides multiple independently assignable contact positions in one connector assembly for PCB-mounted electrical interfaces.
Each spring-loaded contact provides electrical connection and controlled compliance along the contact axis. Final connector position, working compression and mechanical seating should be established by the PCB, enclosure and mating structure rather than by using the pogo contacts as structural stops.
Sixteen spring-loaded contacts are arranged as eight positions across two parallel rows. This allows sixteen electrical contact positions to be maintained in one elongated connector housing.
Exact contact pitch, row spacing, contact-center coordinates and Pin 1 orientation should be confirmed from the approved connector drawing before PCB or mating-interface design is released.
This product is a complete multi-contact pogo pin connector rather than sixteen separately installed spring-loaded contacts. The housing maintains the relative position of the complete 8 × 2 array as one mechanical assembly.
Engineers should therefore review the housing geometry, PCB footprint, mating target, working stroke and tolerance stack-up as one interface.
Straight metallic tails are visible below the connector housing and are consistent with through-hole PCB integration. The final PCB finished-hole diameter, pad dimensions, tail diameter, tail length and board thickness should follow the approved connector and PCB drawings.
DIP-style terminology describes the dual-row through-hole architecture but should not replace the actual released PCB footprint and dimensional drawing.
The connector should be reviewed together with PCB position, enclosure geometry, mating direction and the target-contact surface. Mechanical datums and device-level stops should establish the final relationship between the connector and mating target.
Each pogo contact should operate within the working stroke defined by the approved connector drawing. Working stroke is the intended operating compression range and is different from total available mechanical travel.
The completed assembly should provide a defined mechanical stop so the pogo contacts remain within their intended operating range rather than serving as structural stops.
Sixteen physical contacts provide sixteen available electrical positions, but the pin count does not determine their functions. Power, return, control, sensing, identification and signal functions should be assigned through the approved customer pin map.
A clear Pin 1 reference and viewing direction should be included because an 8 × 2 dual-row connector can be interpreted differently from the PCB side and mating side.
Current capability should be evaluated across the complete conductive path:
Source → PCB copper → through-hole solder joint → connector tail → pogo contact → mating interface → target conductor → load.
Pin count or visible contact diameter alone is not sufficient to establish an approved current rating. PCB copper, solder-joint resistance, contact resistance, mating resistance and temperature rise should be reviewed together.
Multiple contacts may be evaluated in parallel for project-specific power paths, but total current should not be calculated by simply multiplying one contact rating by the number of parallel contacts.
PCB routing, contact-resistance variation, mating geometry, compression consistency and thermal conditions all affect current sharing.
Sixteen contact positions do not automatically provide higher data bandwidth or support a particular communication protocol.
Data capability depends on the actual pin map, ground and return-path allocation, contact pitch, contact geometry, PCB transition, mating target and the complete electrical channel.
This 8 × 2 dual-row connector architecture can be evaluated for PCB-mounted electrical interfaces requiring sixteen independently assigned spring-contact positions in one connector assembly.
Application suitability depends on available PCB space, mating-target geometry, pin assignment, working stroke, electrical conditions and mechanical tolerance rather than on pin count alone.
Contact material, plating, cycle life, operating temperature and compliance status should only be published when supported by approved specifications or validation records.
Gold-colored contact surfaces do not establish a gold-plating specification, and visible connector construction does not establish corrosion or lifetime performance.
CTP can review project-specific requirements for contact pitch, row spacing, housing dimensions, PCB-tail geometry, footprint, working stroke, spring-force condition, pin assignment and mating-target geometry.
Final mechanical and electrical specifications should be released through an approved connector drawing.
The connector uses an 8 × 2 dual-row architecture with sixteen spring-loaded contact positions integrated into one housing.
A dual-row architecture places contacts across two rows and can reduce the required connector length compared with a sixteen-position single-row design. Final selection depends on PCB space and mating geometry.
The visible product uses straight PCB tails consistent with through-hole integration. Final PCB hole size, pad dimensions and footprint should follow the approved drawing.
The exact contact pitch and row spacing should be confirmed from the approved connector drawing before PCB layout release.
Current capability is project-specific and should be evaluated across the PCB, solder joints, connector tails, pogo contacts, mating interface and complete load path.
Parallel contact assignments can be evaluated, but current sharing, contact-resistance variation, PCB routing and temperature rise should be included in the design review.
No. Pin count alone does not establish data bandwidth. Signal performance depends on the pin map, return paths, contact geometry, PCB transitions and the complete electrical channel.
Working stroke should be defined by the approved spring-contact drawing and should be distinguished from total available travel.
Project-specific contact pitch, row spacing, housing dimensions, PCB-tail geometry and contact functions can be reviewed according to the PCB and mating-interface requirements.
If this 16-pin dual-row pogo connector architecture is close to your PCB interface requirements, submit the contact pitch, row spacing, PCB footprint, pin map, working stroke, mating target and electrical conditions for engineering review.

This product page presents a CTP magnetic connector configuration for engineering reference. Final dimensions, electrical ratings, materials, magnet structure, sealing level and reliability targets are not universal values; they are confirmed against the approved drawing, installation condition and model-specific validation plan.
CTP reviews the application and prepares a drawing or specification for approval before sample production. Test scope, acceptance criteria and report format should identify the model, sample status, method, conditions, result and review date.
Yes. Customization can cover geometry, contact layout, materials, cable construction, magnetic structure, sealing and appearance. Feasibility depends on the application and approved specification.
No. Current, voltage, resistance, temperature rise and ingress-protection claims apply only to the identified model and stated test conditions.
Timing is confirmed after the drawing, materials, tooling, sample quantity, validation scope and production requirements have been reviewed.
The development route depends on whether an existing pogo pin can be used, modified or assembled into a customized multi-contact connector.
Confirm product type, dimensions, stroke, force, current, mounting and project quantity.
Match the contact geometry, tail structure, housing, Pin layout and installation method.
Confirm dimensional tolerances, material requirements and sample configuration.
