What This Connector Is
The Amphenol 75844-102-08LF is the 8-position member of the BERGSTIK dual-row header series, operating as a Board to Board or Cable style interconnect at 0.100" (2.54mm) pitch. The male pin header carries square phosphor bronze contacts with 30.0µin (0.76µm) gold plating on the mating face — the GXT grade — which puts it well above tin for reconnection duty and long-term contact integrity. Through-hole push-pull termination, unshrouded, with 0.100" row spacing and an insulation height of 0.100" (2.54mm).
What It Connects
Board to Board or Cable style means it mates with a matching IDC ribbon cable receptacle or a dual-row socket header on an adjacent board — the BERGSTIK series is widely used in wire-to-board and board-stacking applications where a low-profile unshrouded header on 2.54mm pitch is the standard footprint. The push-pull fastening type and square pin shape suit the dual-beam receptacle contact geometry used across this series. Because it is unshrouded, the keying and polarization role falls to the housing or cable connector it mates with — confirm that the mating half carries the polarizing key the design requires.
