The Amphenol FCI 68023-410HLF is the 10-circuit member of the BERGSTIK II series — a single-row, unshrouded board-to-board header with right-angle through-hole mounting and push-pull fastening. Contacts are tin-plated phosphor bronze, finished to 100 µin (2.54 µm) on the mating face, rated 5 A per circuit at 110 V. The 0.100" (2.54 mm) pitch aligns with standard 0.100" IDC and ribbon-cable receptacle grids, so the mating half is a matching IDC or card-edge receptacle in the same pitch family. UL94 V-0 black thermoplastic housing with 0.095" (2.41 mm) insulation height seats the header flush against the board surface.
What the ratings mean
The 110 V rating is the point to watch against other BERGSTIK II variants — confirm your voltage envelope clears 110 V before committing. The 5 A per-circuit rating handles low-current power and signal paths without derating headroom concerns at room temperature, but the tin finish invites derating per the product drawing's curve — a standard practice for tin-plated headers in enclosed assemblies. The 0.136" (3.45 mm) mating length and 0.305" (7.75 mm) tail length give adequate wipe and fillet access for hand or wave soldering.
Mating and termination
The push-pull push-to-seat action means there is no screw or latching feature — retention relies on contact normal force. For any application with vibration or repeated mating cycles, confirm the board-mount strain relief or the mated assembly is backed by a secondary locating feature. The matching half will be a 0.100" pitch IDC ribbon-cable receptacle or a board-to-board female header in the same series; because the shrouding is absent, polarisation is by the housing keying or the circuit layout — check the keying pattern before designing the footprint.
