Amphenol ICC 95157-206VLF Surface Mount Rectangular Connector

Part Overview

The Amphenol ICC 95157-206VLF is a surface mount rectangular connector header with 6 positions arranged in 2 rows at 0.100" (2.54mm) pitch. This BERGSTIK® II series connector features male pins with gold-plated mating contacts and tin-plated posts, designed for board-to-board applications. The part is currently active in production with 997 units in stock. Equivalent and substitute parts are necessary to address supply chain flexibility, alternative packaging requirements, and design optimization across different manufacturing environments.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the 95157-206VLF is determined by strict alignment with the following core parameters: 6-position, 2-row configuration at 0.100" (2.54mm) pitch and row spacing; surface mount solder termination; male pin contact type with square contact shape; gold-plated mating contacts; 3A current rating; UL94 V-0 flammability rating; and RoHS compliance. All substitute parts listed maintain these electrical and mechanical specifications. Variations in contact finish thickness, insulation material composition, operating temperature range, and packaging format (Tube, Tape & Reel, or Bulk) do not affect functional interchangeability when these core parameters are preserved. Connector type variants (Header, Breakaway, Cuttable, or Piston) and additional features (Board Guide, Board Lock, Pick and Place) represent design options within the substitution scope.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

All listed substitute parts maintain active product status except for the Mill-Max 814-22-006-30-007101, which is discontinued at DiGi Electronics and should be avoided for new designs requiring long-term supply assurance. The TE Connectivity 5-146130-2 and Sullins GBC03DABN-M30 are direct functional equivalents with full RoHS compliance and active availability. The Samtec TSM series (TSM-103-01-F-DV, TSM-103-01-F-DV-A, TSM-103-01-F-DV-P-TR, TSM-103-01-L-DV, TSM-103-01-L-DV-A, TSM-103-01-L-DV-A-P-TR, and TSM-103-01-L-DV-LC) offers multiple configuration options with cuttable connector design and optional board guide or board lock features. For applications requiring Tape & Reel packaging with pick-and-place compatibility, select TSM-103-01-F-DV-P-TR or TSM-103-01-L-DV-A-P-TR. For standard tube packaging, any TSM variant without the "-P-TR" suffix is appropriate. The Samtec TSM-103-01-L-DV-LC variant includes board lock functionality for enhanced mechanical retention. All active substitutes carry ROHS3 compliance and MSL 1 rating, ensuring compatibility with standard manufacturing processes.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the Mill-Max 814-22-006-30-007101 be used as a long-term replacement?

A: No. This part is discontinued at DiGi Electronics and should not be selected for new designs or applications requiring sustained supply availability. Use active alternatives such as TE Connectivity 5-146130-2, Sullins GBC03DABN-M30, or Samtec TSM series parts.

Q: What is the difference between Samtec TSM-103-01-F-DV and TSM-103-01-L-DV variants?

A: Both maintain identical electrical and mechanical specifications. The primary difference is contact finish thickness on the mating surface: TSM-103-01-F-DV has 3.00µin (0.076µm) gold plating, while TSM-103-01-L-DV has 10.0µin (0.25µm) gold plating. The thicker finish on the L-variant provides enhanced durability for high-cycle mating applications.

Q: Which substitute part should be selected for automated assembly?

A: For pick-and-place automation, select TSM-103-01-F-DV-P-TR or TSM-103-01-L-DV-A-P-TR, both supplied in Tape & Reel packaging with the "-P-TR" designation indicating pick-and-place compatibility.

Q: Are all substitute parts compatible with the same PCB footprint?

A: Yes. All substitute parts maintain identical pitch (0.100" / 2.54mm), row spacing (0.100" / 2.54mm), contact length (0.230" / 5.84mm), and surface mount termination specifications. PCB footprints are interchangeable.

Q: What is the operating temperature limitation for Samtec TSM series substitutes?

A: Samtec TSM series parts operate from -55°C to 125°C, which is narrower than the original 95157-206VLF range of -65°C to 130°C. For applications requiring the full -65°C to 130°C range, use TE Connectivity 5-146130-2 (-65°C to 125°C) or Sullins GBC03DABN-M30 (-65°C to 150°C).

Q: Does the Samtec TSM-103-01-L-DV-LC board lock feature affect electrical performance?

A: No. The board lock feature is a mechanical retention enhancement only and does not alter electrical characteristics, current rating, or contact resistance specifications.

Q: What packaging options are available for the 95157-206VLF substitute?

A: Substitute parts are available in three packaging formats: Tube (standard for manual assembly), Tape & Reel (for automated pick-and-place), and Bulk (for high-volume applications). Select based on assembly process requirements.
