The mating interface carries a Gold GXT™ finish at 30.0 µin (0.76 µm), while the solder posts are tin-plated at 39.4 µin (1.00 µm). The housing is black thermoplastic rated UL94 V-0. ## Breakaway Design and Unshrouded Profile As a breakaway header, the 93690-103-20LF ships as a full strip that can be snapped to the required position count — in this case 20 positions are loaded. ## Termination and Mounting The press-fit option uses a compliant pin that deforms to fill the plated through-hole without solder, common in backplane applications where rework or high-reliability solderless assembly is preferred. The solder option is straightforward wave-solder through-hole. The overall contact length is 0.505\" (12.83 mm), with a mating length of 0.224\" (5.70 mm) and a post length of 0.177\" (4.50 mm) — these dimensions determine the board thickness and stack-up the header can accommodate. ## Mating and Application This unshrouded header mates with any standard 0.100\" (2.54 mm) pitch dual-row receptacle housing that accepts square 0.025\" (0.64 mm) male pins. Typical mating connectors include IDC sockets, crimp-to-wire receptacles, or other BERGSTIK receptacles from the same series. For wire-to-board applications, the header is the board-side component; the cable side uses a receptacle housing with crimp terminals.","metaTitle":"Amphenol BERGSTIK 93690-103-20LF","metaDescription":"Amphenol BERGSTIK 93690-103-20LF: 20-position dual-row 0.100\" pitch unshrouded breakaway header, male pin, through-hole press-fit/solder.","metaKeywords":null},"attributes":{"series":null,"packageCase":null,"mountingType":null,"rohsStatus":null,"productStatus":"Active","categoryPath":["Pin Headers, Sockets & Housings"],"specifications":{"Style":"Board to Board or Cable","title":"93690-103-20LF","Series":"BERGSTIK®","Package":"Bulk","Shrouding":"Unshrouded","Termination":"Press-Fit, Solder","Contact Type":"Male Pin","Contact Shape":"Square","Mounting Type":"Through Hole","Connector Type":"Header, Breakaway","Fastening Type":"Push-Pull","Number of Rows":"2","Pitch - Mating":"0.100\\\" (2.54mm)","Voltage Rating":"110V","Contact Material":"Copper Alloy","Insulation Color":"Black","Insulation Height":"0.100\\\" (2.54mm)","Base Product Number":"93690","Insulation Material":"Thermoplastic","Number of Positions":"20","Row Spacing - Mating":"0.100\\\" (2.54mm)","Contact Finish - Post":"Tin","Contact Length - Post":"0.177\\\" (4.50mm)","Current Rating (Amps)":"5A","Overall Contact Length":"0.505\\\" (12.83mm)","Contact Finish - Mating":"Gold, GXT™","Contact Length - Mating":"0.224\\\" (5.70mm)","Number of Positions Loaded":"All","Material Flammability Rating":"UL94 V-0","Contact Finish Thickness - Post":"39.4µin (1.00µm)","Contact Finish Thickness - Mating":"30.0µin (0.76µm)"}},"commercial":{"minOrderQty":null,"leadTime":null,"referencePrice":"$1.3673","priceTiers":null},"links":{"datasheetUrl":"https://cdn.icsourcedirect.com/3253bb7d1206867cc42b85f492370bdf.pdf","sourceUrl":null,"alternativesUrl":"https://icsourcedirect.com/api/mcp/products/93690-103-20LF/alternatives.json"},"ai":{"faq":[{"question":"What is the difference between 93690-103-20LF and a shrouded header?","answer":"The 93690-103-20LF is an unshrouded header, meaning it has no plastic shroud around the pins. A shrouded header has a protective wall that guides the receptacle and provides polarization; the unshrouded design relies on the receptacle for those functions and has a smaller board footprint."},{"question":"Can I use 93690-103-20LF for wire-to-board applications?","answer":"Yes, the 93690-103-20LF is listed for board-to-board or cable interconnect.
