The Amphenol BERGSTIK 75160-101-09LF is a single-row unshrouded male header with 9 positions on a 0.100" (2.54 mm) pitch. It sits in the BERGSTIK family as a through-hole solder-terminated board-to-board interconnect, rated 5 A per circuit at 110 V. The gold GXT plating on the mating surface — 30.0 µin (0.76 µm) — gives it the cycle life for repeated mating in test fixtures or modular boards, while the phosphor bronze contacts and UL94 V-0 black thermoplastic housing handle the -65°C to 130°C operating range without issue.
What the ratings mean for the fit
The 5 A per circuit at 110 V rating is the headline electrical spec — it sets this header for moderate power duty on a PCB, not just signal-level interconnects. The 0.100" (2.54 mm) pitch is an industry-standard grid; it ensures the header fits common perfboard, prototyping grids, and legacy footprints without layout changes. Gold GXT at 30.0 µin is a premium plating grade, indicating the header is designed for repeated mating cycles and corrosive environments, not a one-time solder joint. Unshrouded with push-pull fastening means the header has no polarization or locking; it relies on the mating receptacle for retention and orientation, which is typical for low-vibration board-to-board stacks. The -65°C to 130°C range covers automotive underhood, industrial ovens, and outdoor telecom enclosures; the thermoplastic housing and phosphor bronze contacts handle thermal cycling without cracking.
Sourcing and lifecycle
The 75160-101-09LF carries an Active lifecycle status per the manufacturer — full production, no end-of-life notice. No official successor or cross-reference is on record — the part is the current production number for this configuration.
