The surface-mount solder tails reflow alongside other board components, and the UL94 V-0 thermoplastic body holds up to the reflow profile. ## Gold vs Tin: Why the Mating Finish Matters Tin is adequate for one-time or low-cycle connections, but the gold GXT™ on the 98401-801A10LF handles repeated mating without fretting corrosion. If your design cycles the connector more than a few times in its life, the gold finish is worth the BOM line.","metaTitle":"98401-801A10LF BERGSTIK Header SMD 10 Pos 2.54mm Pitch","metaDescription":"Amphenol ICC (FCI) BERGSTIK 98401-801A10LF: 10-position, 2.54mm pitch, SMT unshrouded header with 15.0µin gold GXT mating finish.","metaKeywords":null},"attributes":{"series":"BERGSTIK®","packageCase":null,"mountingType":null,"rohsStatus":"RoHS Compliant","productStatus":"Active","categoryPath":["Pin Headers, Sockets & Housings","Pin Headers"],"specifications":{"Mfr":"Amphenol ICC (FCI)","Style":"Board to Board","Series":"BERGSTIK®","Package":"Tape & Reel (TR); Cut Tape (CT)","Features":"Board Guide, Pick and Place","Shrouding":"Unshrouded","Termination":"Solder","Applications":"-","Contact Type":"Male Pin","Contact Shape":"Square","Mounting Type":"Surface Mount","Connector Type":"Header, Breakaway","Fastening Type":"Push-Pull","Number of Rows":"2","Pitch - Mating":"0.100\\\" (2.54mm)","Product Status":"Active","Voltage Rating":"-","lifecycle_stage":"unknown","Contact Material":"Phosphor Bronze","Insulation Color":"Black","Insulation Height":"0.084\\\" (2.14mm)","Ingress Protection":"-","Base Product Number":"98401","Insulation Material":"Thermoplastic","Number of Positions":"10","Row Spacing - Mating":"0.100\\\" (2.54mm)","Contact Finish - Post":"Tin-Lead","Contact Length - Post":"-","Current Rating (Amps)":"3A","Operating Temperature":"-65°C~130°C","Mated Stacking Heights":"-","Overall Contact Length":"-","Contact Finish - Mating":"Gold, GXT™","Contact Length - Mating":"0.230\\\" (5.84mm)","Number of Positions Loaded":"All","Material Flammability Rating":"UL94 V-0","Contact Finish Thickness - Post":"150.0µin (3.81µm)","Contact Finish Thickness - Mating":"15.0µin (0.38µm)"}},"commercial":{"minOrderQty":null,"leadTime":null,"referencePrice":"$1.2900","priceTiers":[{"qty":1,"price":"$1.29000","currency":"USD"},{"qty":10,"price":"$1.09100","currency":"USD"},{"qty":100,"price":"$0.97920","currency":"USD"},{"qty":300,"price":"$0.89020","currency":"USD"},{"qty":600,"price":"$0.80120","currency":"USD"},{"qty":900,"price":"$0.77893","currency":"USD"},{"qty":1500,"price":"$0.66766","currency":"USD"},{"qty":3000,"price":"$0.64541","currency":"USD"},{"qty":7500,"price":"$0.62315","currency":"USD"},{"qty":15000,"price":"$0.57864","currency":"USD"}]},"links":{"datasheetUrl":"https://cdn.icsourcedirect.com/3a151cc062a53108e5647d2272e82020.pdf","sourceUrl":null,"alternativesUrl":"https://icsourcedirect.com/api/mcp/products/98401-801A10LF/alternatives.json"},"ai":{"faq":[{"question":"What is the pinout of the 98401-801A10LF?","answer":"It is a 10-position, dual-row unshrouded header with all positions loaded.
