98401-807-54LF

Headers, Male Pins Overview

The Amphenol ICC (FCI) 98401-807-54LF is a BERGSTIK® series board-to-board header connector designed for surface mount termination. It features a male pin configuration with 54 contacts arranged in two rows, providing a 0.100-inch (2.54mm) pitch and a 0.100-inch row spacing. The connector utilizes phosphor bronze contacts with GXT™ gold plating on the mating interface and tin plating on the tail. It operates within a temperature range of -65°C to 130°C and carries an UL94 V-0 flammability rating.

Headers, Male Pins Feature Summary

• BERGSTIK® series design optimized for high-density board-to-board interconnects
• Push-pull locking mechanism ensures secure connection stability
• GXT™ gold contact finish provides reliable signal transmission and corrosion resistance

Headers, Male Pins Applications

• High-density electronic assemblies requiring robust board-to-board connections
• Industrial control systems and instrumentation panels
• Telecommunications infrastructure equipment
• Automotive electronics modules

Headers, Male Pins Procurement Notes

Verify that the specific part number matches the required 54-position configuration and dual-row layout. Confirm that the GXT™ gold plating specification aligns with your environmental requirements. Ensure the surface mount footprint dimensions are compatible with your PCB design constraints before finalizing procurement orders.

Headers, Male Pins Selection Notes

Select this component when a standard 2.54mm pitch header is required for permanent board-to-board mounting. The push-pull feature distinguishes it from standard press-fit or snap-in headers, offering enhanced mechanical retention. Consider the 3A current rating and thermal limits when designing for high-power applications.

Headers, Male Pins Part Context

This connector belongs to the BERGSTIK® family, a widely recognized line of rectangular headers by Amphenol ICC (FCI). The 98401 base series offers various contact counts and configurations, allowing designers to scale density while maintaining consistent mechanical and electrical characteristics across different product lines.

Headers, Male Pins Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include other 98401-series variants with matching 54-pin counts and dual-row layouts. Verify that any alternative maintains the same 2.54mm pitch and surface mount termination style to ensure PCB compatibility.
