5-Pin Right-Angle Header for Board-to-Board Stacking
The 68016-405HLF: It mounts through-hole with a right-angle orientation, making it a natural fit for board-edge applications where the mating board sits parallel to the PCB. The mating finish is 100.0 µinch (2.54 µm) tin over phosphor bronze contacts. That thickness provides good corrosion resistance for low-cycle applications — think one-time assembly or infrequent rework — without the cost of gold.
Board Fit and Routing Considerations
Right-angle through-hole termination means the pins emerge perpendicular to the board edge. Unshrouded headers like this one allow direct stacking with a mating receptacle — no housing wall to clear. The insulation height of 0.095" (2.41 mm) is the standoff from the PCB surface to the bottom of the pin body. All 5 positions are loaded, so no depopulated slots to account for in the footprint.
