10131319-20121G0LF

Overview

The Amphenol ICC (FCI) part number 10131319-20121G0LF is a Minitek Pwr 4.2 series power connector header designed for vertical through-hole mounting on printed circuit boards. This component features a dual-row configuration with a total of 20 positions and a 4.2 mm pitch between contacts. The housing is constructed from black insulating material, while the contacts are made of copper and finished with a 30 micro-inch gold plating to ensure reliable conductivity. It supports an operating temperature range from -40°C to +105°C and has a current rating of 12.5 A per contact.

Feature Summary

• Vertical through-hole mounting design for secure PCB integration
• Dual-row layout providing high-density power distribution
• Gold-plated copper contacts for enhanced corrosion resistance
• High current capacity suitable for demanding power applications

Applications

• Industrial control systems requiring robust power connections
• Telecommunications infrastructure equipment
• Server and storage backplane power delivery
• Automotive electronic control units

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix against the manufacturer's official datasheet to confirm pin count, plating thickness, and packaging details. Ensure that the selected variant matches the required mechanical dimensions and electrical ratings for the target application. Cross-reference the full part number with authorized distributors to confirm availability and lead times before finalizing procurement plans.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a high-current, dual-row power header is required for vertical board-to-board or board-to-cable interfaces. The 4.2 mm pitch allows for wider trace spacing compared to smaller pitches, reducing short-circuit risks in high-power designs. Consider the 12.5 A rating and thermal limits when designing heat dissipation strategies for dense power arrays.

Part Context

This connector belongs to the Minitek Pwr 4.2 family, which offers various position counts and row configurations. Similar parts include 10131319-041220PLF (4-position) and 10131319-08421G0LF (8-position). All share the same 4.2 mm pitch and vertical mounting style but differ in contact count and specific housing variations.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes must maintain the 4.2 mm pitch, 20-position count, and dual-row vertical form factor. Verify compatibility with mating sockets or cables from the same Minitek Pwr 4.2 series. Alternative manufacturers may offer similar specs but require mechanical verification of housing dimensions and terminal locking mechanisms.
