10136655-1212LF

Overview

The Amphenol ICC (FCI) part number 10136655-1212LF is a Minitek Power3.0 series right-angle surface-mount header designed for power-to-board applications. It features two positions with a 3 mm pitch and utilizes copper contacts plated with gold. The connector supports an 8.5 A current rating and a 600 VAC voltage rating, operating within a temperature range of -40°C to +105°C. Constructed with liquid crystal polymer insulation, it offers high reliability in compact electronic assemblies.

Feature Summary

• Right-angle surface-mount design for efficient board space utilization
• High current capacity suitable for power distribution circuits
• Gold-plated copper contacts ensure stable electrical conductivity
• Liquid crystal polymer housing provides thermal stability

Applications

• Power supply modules requiring robust board connections
• Industrial control systems with high current demands
• Telecommunications equipment power interfaces
• Server and storage device power distribution boards

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific contact plating thickness and material flammability rating against the official datasheet before integration. Confirm that the right-angle orientation matches the mechanical layout constraints. Ensure the 3 mm pitch aligns with the target PCB footprint. Validate the 8.5 A rating under actual operating temperature conditions to prevent derating issues.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a low-profile, high-current power connection is required in a surface-mount assembly. The right-angle configuration facilitates vertical mating or side-entry cable routing. Compare the 3 mm pitch against alternative headers if higher density is needed. Consider the black LCP housing for visual identification and thermal resistance in dense environments.

Part Context

This connector belongs to the Minitek Power3.0 family, engineered for demanding power delivery scenarios. It complements other FCI solutions by offering a specialized right-angle form factor. The series integrates signal and power capabilities, supporting modern electronics that require reliable, high-amperage connections in constrained spaces.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include 10136655-1211LF and 10136655-0231LF from the same manufacturer. Verify pin count, pitch, and mounting style compatibility before substitution. Cross-reference mechanical dimensions and electrical ratings to ensure functional equivalence in the target application.
