The Amphenol FCI 75844-150-16LF is a 16-position, dual-row breakaway header from the BERGSTIK® series. It uses the standard 0.100" (2.54 mm) pitch on both the pin-to-pin and row spacing, so it drops into any board laid out on that grid. The unshrouded, push-pull design means it mates with standard dual-row receptacles — no keying, so orientation is on the assembler. Rated 5 A per circuit at 30 °C rise with a 110 V ceiling, it handles signal and moderate power duty. The mating contacts carry 30.0 µ" of gold GXT™ over phosphor bronze — a heavy plating grade that holds up to repeated mating cycles and resists corrosion in industrial or field-service environments. The housing is black thermoplastic rated UL94 V-0, and the operating range spans -65°C to 130°C, covering military storage and high-temp cabinet use.
Mating and termination
This is a through-hole solder-terminated male pin header. The overall contact length is 0.453" (11.50 mm), with a 0.230" (5.84 mm) mating length and a 0.123" (3.12 mm) post for the PCB. It mates with any standard 0.100" pitch dual-row receptacle — no proprietary locking, so the mating half is a commodity part. The breakaway construction means you can snap the strip to a shorter position count if needed, though this one ships fully loaded at 16 positions.
Sourcing and lifecycle
The 75844-150-16LF carries an Active lifecycle status — it is a standard production part, not a last-time-buy or phase-out item. No official cross-reference or direct replacement is on record from the manufacturer.
