The Amphenol Minitek MicroSpace 10142344-105KLF is a 5-position, dual-row male pin header designed for board-to-cable/wire interconnects. Despite the series name, the mating pitch is 0.100" (2.54 mm) — the standard 0.100" grid, not the 1.27 mm the name implies. It carries a 4 A per-circuit current rating at 48 V, with tin-plated copper alloy contacts on both the mating and solder sides. The housing is a black thermoplastic rated UL94 V-0, and the connector is shrouded on all four walls with a latch holder for positive retention. Mounting is surface-mount, right-angle, with a board guide and solder retention features to hold alignment during reflow. The operating range spans -40°C to 130°C, making it suitable for automotive, general-purpose, and industrial applications.
Sourcing and compliance
The 10142344-105KLF carries an Active lifecycle status from Amphenol, with ROHS3 compliance and no end-of-life notice. The UL94 V-0 flame rating and -40°C to 130°C operating range are documented in the manufacturer's specifications.
Mating and termination
This header mates with the matching Minitek MicroSpace receptacle housing (cable side) using a latch holder for vibration-resistant locking. The SMT right-angle termination places the pins parallel to the board — typical for edge-mounted harness connections. Tin plating on the mating interface means this header is suited for applications where the connection is made once or infrequently, not for repeated mating cycles.
