The Amphenol ICC 87916-123HLF is a 23-position, single-row, unshrouded male pin header from the BERGSTIK® II series. It's a through-hole solder-terminated board-to-board interconnect on the standard 0.100" (2.54mm) pitch, which means it drops straight into breadboard-compatible footprints and legacy 0.100" grid layouts. The 23 circuits is an odd count — you're here because your BOM calls for exactly that many signal lines, not a rounded 20 or 24.
What the ratings mean for your board
Rated 5A per contact at 110V, this is a signal-level header. The 30.0µin (0.76µm) gold plating on the mating surface supports repeated mating cycles without contact resistance drift.
Construction and compliance
Phosphor bronze contacts with the option of gold or Gold, GXT™ finish on the mating side. The housing is rated UL94 V-0, so it's acceptable for equipment inside an enclosure that requires a flammability rating. The push-pull fastening type means no locking latch — the retention comes from the friction of the pin-to-receptacle interface, not a mechanical lock.
Sourcing and lifecycle
Active lifecycle status per the manufacturer — no end-of-life notice, no successor to chase down.
