The Amphenol 10142344-107KLF is a 7-position, dual-row header from the Minitek MicroSpace™ 1.27mm series, designed for board-to-cable/wire interconnects. It uses a 0.100" (2.54mm) mating pitch with a 0.096" (2.43mm) row spacing, giving a compact footprint for routing in automotive, industrial, and general-purpose harness assemblies. Rated 4 A per contact at 48 V, the header carries tin-plated square pins with a 118.1 µIn (3.00 µm) mating-side thickness — a cost-optimized finish for moderate-cycle applications where gold is not required. The -40°C to 130°C operating range and UL94 V-0 thermoplastic housing suit it for underhood or enclosed equipment where temperature cycling and flame rating are specified. It terminates via surface-mount solder tails in a right-angle orientation, with a shrouded 4-wall design and a latch holder for positive retention against vibration. Board guide and solder retention features aid alignment during reflow and keep the part seated through wave or selective solder processes.
Mounting and Retention
Right-angle SMT mounting places the header parallel to the board, useful for low-profile cable exits at the board edge. The shrouded 4-wall housing protects the pins during handling and mating, while the latch holder locks with the matching receptacle — a mechanical lock that resists unseating under vibration in automotive or industrial environments.
Sourcing and Lifecycle
The 10142344-107KLF carries an Active lifecycle status from Amphenol — full production, no end-of-life notice. No official replacement or cross-reference is on record beyond the same-series position variants.
