68464-128HLF

Headers, Male Pins Overview

The Amphenol ICC (FCI) 68464-128HLF is a board-to-board connector featuring 12 contacts arranged in two rows. It is a male receptacle with straight solder terminals and a 2.54 mm pitch. The component utilizes phosphor bronze contacts with gold over nickel plating for both mating and termination surfaces. Designed for lead-free assembly, it complies with RoHS standards and JESD-609 code e4. The insulator is black glass-filled polycyclohexylene terephthallate, ensuring stability in general-purpose electronic applications.

Headers, Male Pins Feature Summary

• Provides reliable electrical interconnection through dual-row male contact configuration
• Ensures signal integrity via gold over nickel surface finish on phosphor bronze contacts
• Supports lead-free manufacturing processes compliant with environmental regulations

Headers, Male Pins Applications

• General-purpose board-to-board interconnections
• Data communication equipment
• Industrial control systems

Headers, Male Pins Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix to confirm lead-free status and plating specifications. Ensure compatibility with PCB footprint dimensions and row spacing. Confirm that the straight terminal style aligns with assembly requirements. Check for any specific handling instructions regarding the thermoplastic insulator material during reflow soldering processes.

Headers, Male Pins Selection Notes

Select this connector when a low-profile, two-row male header is required for vertical board stacking. The 2.54 mm pitch suits standard through-hole mounting techniques. Consider the straight orientation for direct alignment with mating connectors. Evaluate the gold over nickel plating for corrosion resistance and cycle life needs in industrial environments.

Headers, Male Pins Part Context

This component belongs to the FCI Basics series, now part of Amphenol's portfolio following the acquisition of Framatome Connectors International. The series focuses on cost-effective, durable solutions for data communication and industrial markets. It offers standardized form factors with proprietary polarization and plating features to ensure consistent performance across various electronic assemblies.

Headers, Male Pins Replacement Considerations

The 68490-728HLF is a single-row alternative with 28 contacts. For identical two-row configurations, verify cross-referencing within the manufacturer's catalog for similar pitch and contact count variations.
