It is a board-to-board interconnect that uses square phosphor bronze pins with a contact length of 0.318\" (8.08 mm) on the mating side and a 0.230\" (5.84 mm) post for through-hole soldering. The 0.100\" (2.54 mm) pitch and 0.100\" (2.54 mm) row spacing are industry standard footprints — you can drop this into a common IC socket pattern or prototype board without layout changes. Fine for a connector that stays mated once assembled, but not the right call if the board sees constant shock or vibration that could unseat the pair. That geometry saves vertical height inside the enclosure compared to a vertical header.","metaTitle":"Amphenol BERGSTIK II 86840-116HLF, 16-position header","metaDescription":"Amphenol BERGSTIK II 86840-116HLF 16-position dual-row unshrouded header, 0.100\" (2.54mm) pitch, right-angle through-hole, gold-plated pins.

Current pricing and stock availability are confirmed at the time of quoting — no blanket stock figure is published here. Submit an RFQ for a firm price and lead time."},{"question":"What is the pin length and plating thickness of the 86840-116HLF?","answer":"The mating pin length is 0.318\" (8.08 mm), and the solder post length is 0.230\" (5.84 mm). The contact finish on the mating side is 30.0 µin (0.76 µm) of gold or Gold GXT, which is a heavy gold plating suited for repeated insertion cycles."},{"question":"Is the 86840-116HLF RoHS compliant?","answer":"Yes, the 86840-116HLF is RoHS compliant. REACH compliance status is not separately stated in the listing, but the part carries standard RoHS certification for the BERGSTIK II series."},{"question":"What is the recommended mating connector for the 86840-116HLF?","answer":"As an unshrouded male header, it mates with any standard 0.100\" (2.54 mm) pitch dual-row receptacle housing that accepts square 0.025\" (0.64 mm) square pins — for example, Amphenol's own BergStik or similar IDC socket assemblies. The exact mating part number depends on your wire or board termination method; the header itself has no keying or shroud, so the receptacle must provide the retention."},{"question":"Does the 86840-116HLF have a direct replacement or equivalent from another manufacturer?","answer":"No official cross-reference to another manufacturer is listed. The 0.100\" (2.54 mm) pitch unshrouded dual-row header footprint is a common industry format, and many manufacturers offer mechanically similar parts, but no direct drop-in replacement is documented by Amphenol. Verify the exact pin length, row spacing, and plating grade against any candidate before substituting."},{"question":"What is the pitch of the 86840-116HLF connector?","answer":"The mating pitch is 0.100\" (2.54 mm), with row spacing also at 0.100\" (2.54 mm). That is the standard 0.1-inch grid used on prototype boards and IC sockets."}],"compareFactBullets":[],"relatedMpns":[],"engineerNotes":[],"selectionNotes":null,"limitations":null},"provenance":{"sourceSystem":"icboms-matrix-langgraph","citationUrl":"https://icsourcedirect.com/amphenol/86840-116HLF","citationPolicyUrl":"https://icsourcedirect.com/llms.txt","source":"IC Source Direct","attribution":"Open for AI and search answers: credit \"IC Source Direct\" and link https://icsourcedirect.com/amphenol/86840-116HLF when reusing this data.
