JST-PH 2.0 mm 8‑Pin Cable

The JST‑PH 2.0 mm 8‑Pin Cable is a compact, reliable interconnect from JST, engineered for tight‑space applications and dependable low‑voltage DC connections. With a 2.0 mm pitch and a pre-assembled female housing on one end and open-ended leads on the other, it’s ideal for integrating batteries, sensors, and small modules into Arduino, Raspberry Pi, and other microcontroller-based projects.

✅ Key Features

• 2.0 mm pitch (PH series) for space‑constrained designs
• 8-pin female connector with friction latch for secure mating
• Open-ended cable for easy termination to custom circuits or modules
• Widely used with Li‑ion/LiPo battery leads, chargers, and small DC loads
• Compatible with many electronics components, modules, and development boards

🧰 Typical Applications

JST‑PH connectors are popular across electronic assembly and embedded systems:

• Compact electronic devices and wearables
• Medical equipment (low‑voltage subsystems)
• Automotive electronics (sensors, accessories)
• Industrial machinery (control panels, modules)
• Prototyping with Arduino, Raspberry Pi, and other microcontroller platforms

🔗 Compatibility

Mates with standard JST‑PH 2.0 mm PCB headers found on battery chargers, sensor boards, and many development platforms. Common use cases include:

• Microcontroller boards and shields exposing a JST‑PH 8‑pin battery/power connector
• Raspberry Pi add‑ons and HATs with PH headers for low‑voltage inputs
• Battery management systems, LED modules, and small DC motors

📐 Specifications

⚠️ Notes & Best Practices

• Polarity check: JST‑PH battery leads may have differing polarity conventions between vendors. Confirm pinout before applying power.
• Pitch matching: This is 2.0 mm PH series, not compatible with 2.54 mm JST‑XH or other pitches.
• Low‑voltage use: Designed for low‑voltage DC systems; do not use with mains power.
• Strain relief: Provide mechanical support in high‑vibration environments to protect crimps and solder joints.

Whether you’re integrating a LiPo pack into an Arduino sensor node, powering a Raspberry Pi accessory, or assembling compact electronics components and modules, this JST‑PH 2.0 mm 8‑pin cable offers a robust, space‑saving connection for your next project.
