The Amphenol FCI BERGSTIK® 93690-107-10LF is a dual-row, 10-position male breakaway header in the 93690 series, rated for board-to-board or cable interconnects at 0.100" (2.54 mm) pitch across two rows. The mating face carries gold plating (GXT™) at 30.0 µin (0.76 µm) over a copper alloy contact body; the solder-side posts are tin-plated at 39.4 µin (1.00 µm). Rated 5 A per contact at 110 V with a 0.264" (6.70 mm) mating pin length and 0.134" (3.40 mm) post tail — all positions are fully loaded in a black UL94 V-0 thermoplastic housing.
What the ratings mean for your selection
The 0.100" (2.54 mm) pitch and dual-row layout put this squarely in the most common through-hole header footprint — it drops into a 0.100" grid and mates with any standard 0.100" pitch IDC or ribbon-cable receptacle. The 5 A per contact rating at 110 V covers low-level signal and moderate power paths; the gold-on-mating / tin-on-post split is the series' standard construction for a balance of durability at the interface and solderability at the board. Breakaway configuration means you can snap the header to a shorter position count in the field if the BOM calls for it — the 10-position is the full-assembled count, all positions loaded. Insulation height is 0.100" (2.54 mm) and overall contact length is 0.497" (12.62 mm), which matters for through-hole reach — the post length of 0.134" (3.40 mm) is standard for press-fit engagement into a plated-through hole without bottoming out in a blind-mate scenario. The push-pull fastening type on the breakaway header itself is friction-fit; a locking latch or screw must be sourced from the mating half if vibration resistance is a concern in the end equipment.
