Overview

The 95278-101-40LF is a high-reliability, surface-mount vertical header from the BergStik series featuring a 2.54mm pitch. This 40-position, dual-row component is designed for board-to-board stacking and utilizes high-temperature thermoplastic to withstand reflow soldering processes. It provides a standard breakaway design, allowing engineers to customize the pin count for specific prototyping or production requirements.

Why Choose This Part

This header is rated for 100 mating cycles and operates across a wide temperature range of -65C to +125C. The phosphor bronze contacts with tin plating support up to 3A per contact, ensuring robust power and signal delivery in a compact surface-mount footprint.

Applications

Mezzanine Board Stacking
Connecting parallel PCBs in industrial control systems where vertical space is constrained and SMT mounting is required.
Embedded Module Integration
Providing a reliable interface for soldering daughtercards or COM modules onto a main carrier board.
Prototyping Interconnects
Acting as a standard 0.100 inch interface for logic analyzer attachments or custom breakout boards.
