Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Are 10028542-001LF and 10028542-003LF electrically identical?

A: Yes. Both parts feature identical 32-position SAS, 4x header connector specifications with press-fit through-hole termination, gold contact finish at 30.0µin thickness, and board guide/board lock features.

Q: What is the primary reason for substitution?

A: The 10028542-001LF is classified as obsolete. The 10028542-003LF is the active production equivalent, ensuring continued availability and supply chain reliability.

Q: Does packaging format affect connector performance?

A: No. Packaging format (tray versus unspecified) does not affect electrical or mechanical performance. It impacts only handling, storage, and logistics procedures.

Q: Is RoHS compliance a functional difference?

A: RoHS compliance is a regulatory and environmental specification, not a functional performance parameter. The 10028542-003LF meets RoHS requirements, which may be mandatory depending on application and regional regulations.

Q: Can these connectors be used interchangeably in existing assemblies?

A: Yes. Identical connector type, position count, mounting method, and termination technology ensure direct interchangeability in PCB applications designed for the 10028542-001LF.
