70-Position Right-Angle Header for DIP-Footprint Boards
The Amphenol FCI 68405-170HLF is a 70-position (2×35) unshrouded male pin header from the BERGSTIK II series, on the standard 0.100" (2.54mm) pitch that matches legacy DIP footprints and breadboard grids. It is a board-to-board interconnect — the right-angle through-hole orientation puts the pins parallel to the PCB, suited for board-edge or space-constrained enclosures where a vertical header would not fit. The push-pull fastening means no locking latch; the header relies on the friction of the mating receptacle for retention. Rated 5A per circuit at 110V, this is a signal-to-light-power header — the current capacity is adequate for logic-level power and I/O lines, but not for bus-level or motor-drive current. The 30.0µin gold or Gold GXT finish on the mating contacts supports repeated mating cycles and resists corrosion in environments where tin contacts would fret. The UL94 V-0 black housing meets the flame-rating requirement for equipment inside an enclosure.
