What the 95687-162HLF is
The Amphenol ICC 95687-162HLF is a 62-circuit, dual-row board-to-board header in the BERGSTIK II series — a long-standing 0.100" (2.54mm) pitch family built around through-hole square pins and unshrouded mating geometry. With all 62 positions populated, this is the full-load member carrying gold-plated contacts on the mating face rated 5 A per circuit at up to 110 V, making it a power-capable signal header rather than a purely signal-density play.
What the ratings mean for fit
At 0.100" pitch and dual-row layout, the 62-position count is the primary fit gate — it translates to a 31-circuit-per-side routing demand that will consume a meaningful portion of a mid-density board edge. Confirm the board footprint accepts a 2-row 0.100" header at that position count before committing. The 5 A per contact rating is the meaningful spec here, not the voltage — at 0.1" pitch a 110 V rating is well within typical board-to-board envelope, but the per-contact current is what decides whether this is a power bus or a signal interconnect in your stack. Gold or Gold GXT plating at 30.0 µin (0.76 µm) on the mating face signals durable repeat-mating performance on phosphor bronze, and the push-pull push-pull fastening type (latch-style, non-threaded) keeps mating cycles clean without tool actuation.
Packaging and build-line planning
Shipped in bag packaging — not tape-and-reel — which means tray or hand-feed for high-volume placement runs. If the line is reel-driven, this part needs a manual or semi-auto staging step. The UL94 V-0 housing material satisfies most industrial flame-retardancy build requirements without additional screening. Base product number 95687 places this in the BERGSTIK II 956xx family — confirm the exact position count and plating against the BOM before ordering.
