10136647-053111LF

Overview

The Amphenol ICC (FCI) part number 10136647-053111LF is a Minitek PWR 4.2 series header connector designed for vertical through-hole mounting on printed circuit boards. This single-row component features five positions with a 4.20mm pitch, providing robust power distribution capabilities. The contacts are plated with 15 microinches of gold over nickel to ensure reliable conductivity and corrosion resistance, while the tails utilize tin plating for secure soldering. Constructed from Liquid Crystal Polymer (LCP), the black insulator offers high thermal stability and flame retardancy rated UL94 V-0. It supports a current rating of 9A per contact and operates within a temperature range of -40°C to +105°C.

Feature Summary

• Vertical through-hole design for direct PCB integration
• High-current capability with 9A per contact rating
• Gold-plated contacts for enhanced signal integrity
• LCP insulation material for thermal resilience

Applications

• Power distribution in industrial control systems
• Server and data center power supply connections
• Telecommunications equipment power interfaces
• High-power consumer electronics assemblies

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix to confirm plating thickness and packaging type, as variations exist within the Minitek PWR 4.2 family. Ensure compatibility with mating power pins regarding height and tolerance. Confirm RoHS compliance status if required by project specifications. Cross-reference the manufacturer datasheet for precise mechanical dimensions before finalizing the design. Check for any recent lifecycle notices or obsolescence warnings directly from Amphenol.

Selection Notes

Select this component when high current capacity is required in a compact vertical form factor. The 4.20mm pitch allows for wider traces compared to standard 2.54mm headers, reducing resistance. Consider the LCP material properties for environments with elevated operating temperatures. Ensure the mating connector matches the 15µin gold specification for optimal contact performance. Evaluate board space constraints against the overall height of the header assembly.

Part Context

This connector belongs to the Minitek PWR 4.2 series, which is engineered for demanding power applications requiring higher current ratings than standard signal headers. The series utilizes advanced polymer materials to withstand reflow soldering profiles without deformation. It is part of Amphenol's broader portfolio of board-to-board interconnect solutions focused on reliability and density.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include other 5-position, 4.20mm pitch vertical headers from Amphenol or compatible manufacturers such as Molex or TE Connectivity, provided they match the pinout and current ratings. Verify that alternative parts support the same LCP material characteristics and UL94 V-0 flammability rating. Ensure the mating pin height and contact geometry are compatible to prevent insertion force issues.
