The Amphenol FCI 10106814-061002LF is a 60-position member of the MezzoStak series, a self-mating, non-gendered, hermaphroditic board-to-board connector. That means you order one part number for both halves of the interconnect — the same connector on each PCB mates with an identical copy of itself, simplifying BOM management and inventory. The mated stacking height between the two PCBs can be set at 4mm, 4.5mm, or 5.5mm depending on the board thickness and the specific MezzoStak variant used — the 10106814-061002LF supports all three heights when paired with a matching MezzoStak header of the appropriate stack height code.
Where It Fits — Board Layout and Stacking
The 0.50mm pitch and 60-position count make this a high-density signal interconnect for compact electronics — think handheld devices, portable instrumentation, or any board stack where z-height is tight. The 3.55mm board-mounted height keeps the connector low-profile, and the three selectable mated stack heights (4mm, 4.5mm, 5.5mm) give the layout engineer flexibility to match the enclosure gap without changing the connector footprint.
