The FCI 68695-110HLF is a 10-position, dual-row BERGSTIK® II unshrouded header. It uses a 0.100" (2.54mm) pitch on both rows and mates — a standard footprint that lands on a 0.100" grid, no board-layout surprise. Rated 5A per contact at 110V, with 30.0µin gold plating on the mating surface for corrosion resistance over repeated mating cycles. The right-angle through-hole termination places the connector parallel to the PCB, suited for board-edge I/O or mezzanine stacking where the cable exits parallel to the board.
What the ratings mean for the fit
The 0.100" pitch is the classic DIP spacing — the header drops onto a standard 0.100" x 0.100" hole grid, so the PCB footprint is predictable. 5A per contact is signal-level current; the limiting factor is the pin density and the 30°C temperature rise in the housing, not the contact itself. The 30.0µin gold on the mating side supports hundreds of mating cycles without contact fretting — field-service grade for equipment that gets reconnected. The right-angle orientation means the pins exit the board edge parallel to the PCB surface, which matters for enclosure clearance and cable routing.
Mating and termination
This is an unshrouded male pin header — it mates with any standard 0.100" pitch dual-row female socket or IDC receptacle that accepts square pins. The push-pull fastening means no locking latch; retention depends on the contact interference fit. Termination is solder to through-hole — the 0.090" post length suits standard PCB thicknesses. The housing is rated UL94 V-0.
