Use a straight pin header when the mating connector plugs perpendicular to the PCB. Use a right-angle pin header when the cable, socket or second board must exit parallel to the PCB, usually because enclosure height or cable routing is limited.
| Item | Straight pin header | Right-angle pin header |
|---|---|---|
| Mating direction | Vertical to the PCB | Parallel to the PCB |
| Common mounting | DIP through-hole, vertical SMT or staggered SMT | Right-angle through-hole or horizontal SMT |
| Layout reason | Board stacking, jumper connection or top-side access | Side cable exit, low profile enclosure or edge connection |
| Mechanical review | Plastic height, stack height and tail length | Pin bend direction, board edge distance and mating clearance |
