Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the Hirose PCN13-96S-2.54DS(71) be used as a direct replacement for the Molex 0853250048?

A: Yes. Both connectors share identical mechanical and electrical specifications: 96 positions, 0.100" pitch, 3-row configuration, right-angle through-hole mounting, solder termination, and gold contact finish. Functional compatibility is confirmed.

Q: What is the difference in product status between these parts?

A: The Molex 0853250048 is classified as obsolete, meaning it is no longer manufactured. The Hirose substitute is designated Last Time Buy, indicating a defined final availability window for procurement before discontinuation.

Q: Are there packaging differences between the main part and substitute?

A: The Molex part packaging is not specified in available documentation. The Hirose substitute is supplied in tray packaging. Verify packaging requirements for your assembly process.

Q: Do both parts meet the same compliance standards?

A: Yes. Both the Molex 0853250048 and Hirose PCN13-96S-2.54DS(71) are ROHS3 compliant and carry MSL Level 1 (Unlimited) moisture sensitivity rating.

Q: What additional technical data is available for the Hirose substitute?

A: The Hirose part provides operating temperature range (-55°C ~ 85°C), current rating (2A per contact), and insulation material specification (PBT). These parameters are not documented for the Molex original part.
