Product Introduction
It uses a 0.100" (2.54mm) square-pin grid on both pitch and row spacing, making it footprint-compatible with standard 0.100" receptacles.
Alignment and retention depend entirely on the mating receptacle's own shroud and friction. For vibration-prone environments, specify a receptacle with a locking ramp or a secondary latch — the header itself provides no vibration resistance beyond the friction fit of the pin-to-socket interface.
The overall contact length of 0.525" (13.34mm) breaks down as 0.318" (8.08mm) mating length and 0.107" (2.71mm) solder post, giving a typical mated stack height around the mating length plus the receptacle's own height.
No official direct replacement or cross-reference is recorded, so the BOM line should match this exact order code. The base product number is 67998, covering the dual-row unshrouded BergStik II family; the -108 suffix encodes the 8-position, dual-row, through-hole variant with 0.100" pitch and 30 µ" gold.
