The Amphenol FCI BERGSTIK II 68697-462HLF is a 62-position, dual-row male header on the standard 0.100-inch (2.54 mm) pitch grid. It is an unshrouded, right-angle through-hole board-to-board interconnect with push-pull fastening. The header carries tin-plated phosphor bronze contacts rated 5 A per circuit at 110 V, with a 100.0 µin (2.54 µm) tin finish on the mating surface. The black UL94 V-0 housing stands 0.190 inch (4.83 mm) off the board. This is a high-position-count member of the BERGSTIK II series, suited for dense signal routing on a dual-row footprint.
The 0.100-inch (2.54 mm) pitch and 0.100-inch row spacing are the classic dual-row through-hole grid. With 62 positions loaded across two rows, the header spans roughly 3.1 inches along the board edge — a large footprint that needs careful keep-out planning.
Current and Voltage Rating
The 5 A per contact is the per-circuit limit; total current through the header depends on how many circuits are active and the ambient temperature, but the 62-position count gives plenty of parallel paths for distributed power or ground.
Through-hole right-angle mounting with solder termination. The contact length on the mating side is 0.230 inch (5.84 mm); the post length is 0.125 inch (3.18 mm). That post length is short — it will sit flush in a standard 0.062-inch PCB and may not protrude far enough for a thick board or a second-side solder fillet. Check the board thickness against the post length before layout.
