10018784-10102TLF

Overview

The Amphenol ICC (FCI) 10018784-10102TLF is a PCI Express Gen 3 card edge connector designed for vertical through-hole mounting. It features 98 positions with a 1.00mm pitch, supporting high-speed signal transmission. The connector utilizes gold-plated copper alloy contacts and a nylon housing, rated for 1.1A current and 300VAC voltage. It accommodates a board thickness of 2.36mm and operates within a temperature range of -55°C to +85°C.

Feature Summary

• Supports PCI Express Gen 3 signaling at 8.0Gb/s per differential pair
• Vertical orientation with through-hole solder termination
• Gold-plated contacts ensure reliable conductivity and corrosion resistance

Applications

• Desktop computer motherboard expansion slots
• Server I/O interface connections
• Workstation graphics card integration

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix against the manufacturer's official datasheet to confirm pin count, pitch, and termination style match the design requirements. Ensure compliance with RoHS directives and check for any recent product lifecycle notices or obsolescence warnings before finalizing procurement plans.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a vertical, through-hole PCIe Gen 3 interface is required for x8 or similar bandwidth applications. Confirm that the PCB stack-up supports the specified 2.36mm board thickness and that the mechanical constraints allow for the vertical mounting profile without interference.
