The 68685-316LF: The single-row layout keeps the PCB footprint narrow — useful when routing traces between rows is not an option. The through-hole solder termination with 0.115" (2.92mm) post length provides a solid mechanical anchor on the PCB — the tin-plated post (100 µinch) solders reliably in wave or selective solder processes.
Cross-Shop: 68685-316LF vs 68685-314LF (14 Positions)
If your BOM calls for 14 circuits, the 68685-314LF is a drop-in alternative with identical footprint per position. The 68685-310LF (10 positions) and 68685-320LF (20 positions) extend the same family for lower or higher circuit counts, all sharing the same pitch, plating, and material set.
The polyphenylene sulfide (PPS) insulation material contributes to the wide temperature tolerance and resists chemical exposure.
