Key ratings and what they mean
The 75844-305-14LF: 5 A per contact is the headline — and for this tin-plated breakaway header that rating is genuine for signal and low-power bus duty without needing to derate. The 110 V rating sits comfortably within the creepage budget that 2.54mm pitch and UL94 V-0 housing material allow for most industrial logic-level and control-bus applications. The push-pull fastening type means this header relies on friction retention — suitable for permanently mated board stacks or applications where the pair is not subject to repeated unmating. The 0.225" (5.72mm) mating pin length and 0.100" (2.54mm) insulation height define the engaged stack geometry; the board-layout engineer checks that the mating receptacle's slot depth and board-separation height accommodate both without stubbing.
Sourcing posture
The BERGSTIK® 75844-305-14LF carries an Active lifecycle status — no official LTB or EOL notice is on record. Quoted to order against the BOM quantity. Before committing, confirm the 14-circuit position count matches the receptacle or mating header on the board — the 75844 series is a breakaway family, so partial rows can be split to order, but this specific 14-position dual-row is a fixed-configuration build. If the target quantity exceeds short-lead availability, the sourcing conversation starts with the franchise channel first, then the broker market for date-coded excess.
