The Amphenol 93939-468HLF is a BERGSTIK® II unshrouded male pin header, 68 positions in two rows at the standard 0.100" (2.54mm) pitch. It's a through-hole, right-angle board-to-board interconnect with tin-plated square pins — rated 5A per contact with a 110V voltage ceiling. The unshrouded design means there's no keying or polarization ramp; alignment depends on the board layout and the mating receptacle's own features. Typical use is as a mezzanine or parallel-board signal interconnect in equipment where the header sits flush to the board edge.
What the ratings mean for the fit
The 0.100" pitch and dual-row layout are a legacy industry standard — the footprint matches decades of existing board designs and IDC ribbon-cable receptacles. At 5A per contact, this is a signal-level interconnect, not a power bus; the limiting factor is the temperature rise in the unshrouded housing, not the contact itself. The tin-on-tin contact finish (100.0µin on the mating side) is suited for moderate mating-cycle duty in controlled environments — it's not rated for high-vibration or corrosive atmospheres where gold would be specified. The right-angle orientation places the pin axis parallel to the PCB, which suits board-edge or mezzanine layouts where the mating receptacle approaches from the side. The 0.120" solder-tail length is standard for through-hole boards of typical thickness.
Sourcing and lifecycle
The 93939-468HLF carries an Active lifecycle status from Amphenol — full production, no end-of-life notice on record. No official direct replacement or cross-reference is listed, so the BOM line should be matched to this exact order code.
