What this connector is and where it fits
The Amphenol 68023-423HLF is a 23-circuit unshrouded male pin header from the BERGSTIK® II series, built for board-to-board interconnect duty. It carries 23 positions in a single row on the standard 0.100" (2.54 mm) pitch, with all positions loaded. The right-angle through-hole termination puts the pin axis parallel to the PCB edge, which suits board-edge mating or space-constrained layouts where a vertical header won't fit. Rated 5 A per contact at 110 V, with tin-on-tin contact finish — the 100.0 µin (2.54 µm) tin plating on the mating side handles moderate mating cycles in a clean, indoor environment.
What the ratings mean for the fit
The 5 A per-contact rating is the headline current, but the tin plating is what governs the real duty. Tin contacts are suited for applications with limited mating cycles — typically under 50 cycles — and are best for permanent or infrequently disconnected harnesses. The 0.100" pitch gives enough creepage for the 110 V rating without forcing an oversized board footprint, and the 0.136" (3.45 mm) mating pin length provides a solid wipe length for the mating receptacle. The UL94 V-0 housing means this header is acceptable inside equipment enclosures that require a flame-retardant rating.
