10142344-116KLF

Overview

The Amphenol ICC (FCI) part number 10142344-116KLF is a Minitek MicroSpace series header assembly designed for wire-to-board applications. It features a 16-position configuration with male pin contacts and a 1.27 mm pitch. The connector utilizes a two-row arrangement with a row spacing of 2.43 mm, housed in a black thermoplastic shrouded enclosure. Designed for surface mount technology, it employs a right-angle orientation and solder termination. The component supports a current rating of 4 A and operates within a temperature range of -40°C to +130°C.

Feature Summary

• Shrouded four-wall housing design ensures precise alignment and prevents misinsertion during mating.
• Right-angle surface mount construction facilitates compact board layout and efficient space utilization.
• Integrated terminal position assurance mechanism secures contact retention within the insulation body.

Applications

• Wire-to-board interconnections in consumer electronics
• Signal transmission in industrial control systems
• Data communication equipment internal connections

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix KLF against official manufacturer documentation to confirm plating specifications and material composition. Ensure compatibility with automated surface mount placement processes. Confirm that the required mating receptacles match the 1.27 mm pitch and shrouded geometry. Cross-reference the RoHS status with current regulatory requirements for the target market.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a low-profile, high-density connection is required for signal lines. The right-angle SMT form factor suits applications with limited vertical clearance. Verify that the 4 A current rating meets the circuit demands. Consider the 1.27 mm pitch constraint relative to adjacent components on the PCB layout.

Part Context

This part belongs to the Minitek MicroSpace family, which provides compact interconnect solutions for dense wiring environments. The series is characterized by its small footprint and reliable performance in space-constrained designs. Amphenol FCI engineers these connectors to meet stringent mechanical and electrical standards for modern electronic assemblies.
