Product details

It uses a 0.100" (2.54mm) square-pin grid on both pitch and row spacing, making it a direct board-to-board interconnect for standard 0.100" footprint patterns.

Ratings and Plating

Rated 5 A per circuit at 110 V, the current capability is typical for a 0.100" pitch signal header — the limiting factor is the pin density and the PCB trace width, not the contact itself. The mating contact finish is gold or Gold, GXT™ at 30.0 µin (0.76 µm) thickness, which provides the corrosion resistance and cycle life for repeated mating in field-service or production test environments.

Mechanical and Compliance

Overall contact length is 0.730" (18.54mm), with a mating length of 0.430" (10.92mm) and a post length of 0.200" (5.08mm). The insulation height of 0.100" (2.54mm) keeps the header low above the board surface.

This unshrouded header mates with any standard 0.100" pitch dual-row receptacle or female socket strip that accepts 0.025" square pins — typically a BERGSTIK II receptacle or a compatible IDC socket. The 66-position layout (2×33) means the mating connector must also be 66 positions, dual row, with the same 0.100" row spacing.

Frequently asked questions

What is the pinout of 79821-166HLF?

The 79821-166HLF is a 66-position dual-row header with all positions loaded (2×33). The pinout follows the standard 0.100" square-pin grid; pin 1 is typically indicated by a chamfer or marking on the housing. Refer to the series product drawing for the exact numbering sequence.

What is the mating connector for 79821-166HLF?

This unshrouded header mates with any 66-position dual-row 0.100" pitch receptacle or female socket strip that accepts 0.025" square pins — for example, a BERGSTIK II receptacle or a compatible IDC socket with the same row spacing.

Is 79821-166HLF RoHS compliant?

Yes, the 79821-166HLF is RoHS compliant, standard for the BERGSTIK II series.
