What This 10-Pin 0.80mm Pitch Header Does
The 10144042-10011LF is a 10-position, single-row header from Amphenol ICC's Minitek® 0.80mm series. It's a board-to-cable/wire connector — the male pins mate with a corresponding receptacle housing and crimp terminals. The 0.80mm pitch is tight enough to save board real estate but still routable on a standard 2-layer PCB with 0.15mm traces.
SMT Assembly and Glow Wire Compliance
It's also pick-and-place compatible, so it runs on a standard SMT line without hand placement. The glow wire compliance (likely per IEC 60335-1) is a safety requirement for household appliances — the housing won't ignite if a hot wire contacts it. The UL94 V-0 rating confirms the thermoplastic stops burning within 10 seconds of flame removal. The insulation is cream-colored thermoplastic, halogen-free — that's a plus for environmental compliance in European markets.
The only difference between this 10-position header and the 6-position 10144042-06011LF is the circuit count — both are single-row, 0.80mm pitch, SMT, tin-plated, shrouded, and glow wire compliant. If you need 10, this is the one. No other functional difference — same current, voltage, and material set.
