10136656-0841LF

Overview

The Amphenol ICC (FCI) part number 10136656-0841LF is a Minitek Power 3.0 Series through-hole header designed for board-to-board power distribution applications. This component features an 8-position configuration with a 3.00mm pitch, utilizing gold-plated contacts to ensure reliable signal and power transmission. The housing is constructed from Liquid Crystal Polymer (LCP), providing high thermal stability and compliance with glow wire standards. It is engineered for surface mount or vertical insertion into printed circuit boards, offering a robust solution for compact electronic assemblies requiring efficient power delivery.

Feature Summary

• Supports glow wire compliance for enhanced fire safety in critical applications
• Features board guide design for precise alignment during assembly
• Utilizes LCP housing material for superior thermal resistance

Applications

• Power distribution in industrial equipment
• Connections in battery management systems
• Interconnects for factory automation machinery

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix designation when ordering, as variations such as NLF may indicate differences in packaging or material composition compared to the base LF designation. Confirm that the required contact plating thickness meets the application's durability needs. Ensure the selected variant aligns with the intended mounting style and environmental requirements specified in the official datasheet.

Selection Notes

Select this connector for applications requiring a 3.00mm pitch with high current carrying capacity. The LCP housing makes it suitable for environments with elevated temperatures. Consider the through-hole termination method for mechanical strength. Evaluate the 8-position count against the necessary power and ground lines to optimize board space utilization effectively.

Part Context

This component belongs to the Minitek Power 3.0 series by Amphenol ICC (FCI), a line of connectors optimized for power delivery in dense electronic layouts. The series is characterized by its low profile and high reliability, serving industries such as automotive, industrial control, and consumer electronics where stable power connections are essential for system performance.

Replacement Considerations

Check for equivalent parts within the same Minitek Power 3.0 family that offer identical pin counts and pitch. Verify compatibility with existing PCB footprints before substituting. Ensure any alternative maintains the same glow wire compliance and housing material properties to preserve system safety standards.
