10124077-21000LF

Overview

The Amphenol ICC (FCI) part number 10124077-21000LF is a standard card edge connector belonging to the HPCE series. It features a right-angle header design with an integrated latch mechanism and supports 12 signal positions. The component utilizes a through-hole mounting style for secure PCB attachment. Electrical ratings include a voltage capacity of 600 VAC and a current rating of 8.5 A per contact. The connector employs a 3 mm pitch between contacts, ensuring compatibility with specific board edge widths. Contact materials are copper alloy with tin plating to ensure reliable conductivity and corrosion resistance.

Feature Summary

• Integrated mechanical latch ensures secure mating and prevents accidental disconnection during operation.
• Right-angle header configuration optimizes vertical space utilization on printed circuit boards.
• High-power capability supports significant current loads within compact industrial form factors.

Applications

• Industrial control systems requiring robust power distribution
• Telecommunications infrastructure equipment
• Data processing hardware modules

Procurement Notes

Verify that the target application requires a right-angle orientation and an integrated latch mechanism, as these are fixed physical characteristics of this specific model. Confirm that the PCB layout accommodates the 3 mm pitch and the spatial requirements of the latch assembly. Ensure the operating environment does not exceed the specified temperature range or voltage limits defined in the official datasheet. Cross-reference the pin count and row configuration with the mating card edge specifications to guarantee electrical continuity.

Selection Notes

This component is selected based on its specific combination of high-current handling and mechanical retention features. The right-angle design is critical for applications where vertical clearance is limited but secure connection is mandatory. The tin-plated contacts offer a balance of performance and cost-effectiveness for general industrial use. Engineers should evaluate the mechanical stress on the PCB due to the through-hole soldering method and the potential need for additional support structures given the latch force.

Part Context
