Product Introduction
The FCI 87916-107HLF is a 7-position, single-row, unshrouded male pin header from the BERGSTIK® II series, designed for board-to-board interconnects. It uses a 0.100" (2.54 mm) pitch, through-hole solder termination, and carries a current rating of 5 A per circuit at 110 V. The mating surface is plated with 30.0 µin gold or GXT™, giving it the cycle life for repeated connections in internal board stacks.
What the Key Ratings Mean for Your Fit
The 0.100" pitch is the standard 2.54 mm grid — it matches legacy through-hole footprints and keeps routing density predictable. The 7-position, single-row layout means the board footprint is a straight line of 7 plated holes on 0.100" centres; the BOM position count must match exactly. The 5 A per circuit rating is typical for signal-level board-to-board links; the limiting factor is the temperature rise in the unshrouded housing, not the phosphor bronze contact itself. The 30.0 µin gold or GXT™ on the mating surface handles repeated mating cycles without fretting corrosion — a solid choice for production assemblies that see occasional rework or field service.
