Product details

BERGSTIK II 68697-116HLF — 16-Circuit Unshrouded Header

The Amphenol FCI 68697-116HLF is a 16-position (2×8) unshrouded male pin header from the BERGSTIK® II series, on the standard 0.100" (2.54mm) pitch that matches legacy and current board layouts.

The 0.100" (2.54mm) pitch and 0.100" (2.54mm) row spacing define a standard 0.100" × 0.100" grid footprint — the same pattern used by legacy DIP packages and ribbon-cable headers, so the board layout is a known quantity. The 0.230" (5.84mm) mating pin length engages with standard box or friction-lock receptacles, while the 0.125" (3.18mm) solder post length suits typical 0.062" to 0.093" PCB thicknesses.

Frequently asked questions

What is the mounting style of 68697-116HLF?

The 68697-116HLF is a right-angle through-hole header. The pins are soldered into plated through-holes on the PCB, and the right-angle orientation places the mating axis parallel to the board surface.

What is the difference between shrouded and unshrouded headers?

An unshrouded header like the 68697-116HLF has exposed pins with no plastic wall around them. This saves board space and cost but provides no keying or polarization — the mating receptacle must supply its own alignment and mis-mate protection. Shrouded headers add a plastic shroud that guides the mating half and prevents reverse insertion.

Can 68697-116HLF be used for board-to-board connections?

Yes, the 68697-116HLF is listed with a Board to Board style. The right-angle orientation and 0.230" (5.84mm) mating pin length allow it to connect to a right-angle receptacle on a parallel board, forming a mezzanine or perpendicular board-to-board interconnect.
