It is a single-row, right-angle through-hole board-to-board connector with push-pull fastening, designed for general-purpose signal and low-power interconnects where a straight, unshrouded pin header mates with a matching receptacle. The 5 A per contact rating at 110 V, combined with the 15.0 µin gold or Gold GXT plating on the mating surface, suits it for repeated mating cycles and environments where contact corrosion resistance matters — think test fixtures, industrial control boards, or any application where the header lives on the PCB and sees periodic reconnection. The 0.100\" pitch is the de facto standard for 2.54 mm grid prototyping and legacy board layouts — it matches the vast installed base of BergStik-compatible receptacles and perfboard patterns. The 5 A per contact is typical for a signal-grade header; at this pitch and with 34 positions in a single row, the limiting factor is the temperature rise across the full bank, so derate if all circuits carry current simultaneously near the 5 A ceiling. Right-angle through-hole solder termination means the header sits flush against the board edge, with the pin tails protruding 0.305\" (7.75 mm) through the PCB for wave or hand soldering. The 0.095\" (2.41 mm) insulation height keeps the profile low, so the header does not block adjacent components on the same side of the board.","metaTitle":"Amphenol FCI 68023-234HLF BERGSTIK II Header, 34-Pos","metaDescription":"Amphenol FCI BERGSTIK II 68023-234HLF 34-position unshrouded male header, 0.100\" (2.54 mm) pitch, right-angle through-hole, 5 A per contact, gold/GXT 15.0 µin","metaKeywords":null},"attributes":{"series":null,"packageCase":null,"mountingType":null,"rohsStatus":null,"productStatus":"Active","categoryPath":["Pin Headers, Sockets & Housings"],"specifications":{"Style":"Board to Board","title":"68023-234HLF","Series":"BERGSTIK® II","Package":"Bag","Shrouding":"Unshrouded","Termination":"Solder","Contact Type":"Male Pin","Contact Shape":"Square","Mounting Type":"Through Hole, Right Angle","Connector Type":"Header","Fastening Type":"Push-Pull","Number of Rows":"1","Pitch - Mating":"0.100\\\" (2.54mm)","Voltage Rating":"110V","Contact Material":"Phosphor Bronze","Insulation Color":"Black","Insulation Height":"0.095\\\" (2.41mm)","Base Product Number":"68023","Number of Positions":"34","Contact Length - Post":"0.305\\\" (7.75mm)","Current Rating (Amps)":"5A","Contact Finish - Mating":"Gold or Gold, GXT™","Contact Length - Mating":"0.136\\\" (3.45mm)","Number of Positions Loaded":"All","Material Flammability Rating":"UL94 V-0","Contact Finish Thickness - Mating":"15.0µin (0.38µm)"}},"commercial":{"minOrderQty":null,"leadTime":null,"referencePrice":"$3.5717","priceTiers":null},"links":{"datasheetUrl":"https://cdn.icsourcedirect.com/960eb3e990e58f6adfbe57ec9cf250f2.pdf","sourceUrl":null,"alternativesUrl":"https://icsourcedirect.com/api/mcp/products/68023-234HLF/alternatives.json"},"ai":{"faq":[{"question":"What is the current rating of the 68023-234HLF?","answer":"The 68023-234HLF is rated 5 A per contact at 110 V, with gold or Gold GXT 15.0 µin plating on the mating surface."},{"question":"Does the 68023-234HLF have a locking feature?","answer":"No, the 68023-234HLF uses push-pull fastening — it is an unshrouded header with no locking ramp or latch.
